Public Allies: Building the Infrastructure for Growth

According to the Bridgespan Group (2004):

Strong support from AmeriCorps, fees from organizations that sponsor allies, and clearly documented program results have propelled the growth of Public Allies. Over the years, Public Allies has worked hard to find the appropriate level of control and decentralization with its branches. Recently, the organization decided to transfer all its sites to a licensee model in which organizations or universities manage local programs, relieving some of the administrative and financial burden on local sites. Public Allies is planning a new, lower cost model and a more targeted approach to site development.
