Facilitators Kieth Peppers and Wendy Wasman have successfully collaborated on a <a href="http://cmnhabwilliams.org/">
grant-funded project</a> between the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, Baldwin Wallace University, The University of Akron and the Cleveland Metroparks. The morning will be devoted to hearing about their collaboration and a collaboration between the Madison
Public Library, Madison Local Schools and Lakeland Community College around College Credit Plus. Presenters will discuss the creation of their projects, partnerships in practice and provide ideas for you to apply to your own situation and project. The morning
will continue with Cindy Boyden and Evan Struble from the State Library of Ohio talking about how to write an effective MOU/MOA and will end with a presentation by Annie Heidersbach and Dr. Paul Putman from the Cleveland Foundation on writing proposals and
why partnerships are attractive to funders. In the afternoon the facilitators will lead attendees through “Collaboration Connection,” an interactive process designed to help you find the collaborator or resources that you need, right in this very workshop.
<i>Projects initiated during the afternoon will be judged based on specified criteria and eligible for one-time project support in the amount of $500.00.</i><br>
