Summary
Part VII of the handbook explores funding, policy, and politics as a means to build and sustain school–university partnerships (SUPs). How partnerships evolve over time involves many factors. At the heart of partnership work is a shared vision and commitment to a set of values that support mutually beneficial outcomes. Even with the best of intentions, too often these qualities are not enough to move SUPs beyond an initial stage of development. While these elements are critical to partnership success, it’s important to acknowledge that unless funding, policy, and politics are in place to support SUPs in their efforts, barriers will derail their ability to operate and organize in new ways.
