Partners

CPLP is grateful to all the partners who make our work possible, including donors who support our work, volunteers who give their time, service providers with whom we collaborate, and community organizations that help us reach and support those in need of assistance.

Partners

Community Support  Partners 

In addition to referrals from service providers, CPLP’s work depends on its strong partnerships in the communities we serve.  Like the service providers listed above, the organizations that support us in these community-based partnerships are the unsung heroes.  They inform us of critical issues facing residents in their communities, assist with outreach efforts, provide referrals, and so much more.
