Sharing Power with Communities: A Field Guide
A field guide from Community Wealth Partners for nonprofits and funders that want the communities they serve to help make decisions. It covers the groundwork and principles first, then three models: an advisory team, participatory processes, and bringing community members inside the organisation. It helps you choose the right one, flags common pitfalls, and draws on examples from United Way of Rhode Island, Miriam's Kitchen, Child Care Aware of America, the Greater Rochester Health Foundation and others.

Earned-Revenue Strategies: A Field Guide
Community Wealth Partners' step-by-step guide for nonprofits weighing an earned-revenue venture. It opens with a readiness assessment, then walks through six steps: set goals, map your assets and opportunities, test feasibility, design the business model, plan implementation, and run a pilot. Each step comes with criteria lists, scorecards and reflection questions, and four case studies (Communities In Schools, Food & Friends, Per Scholas and the Center for Children's Law and Policy) show how it worked in practice.
