Do any of you out there have experience running a jointly-managed program -
for example, between the local WIC agency and the local breastfeeding
coalition? In our community, such a project is in the works - a grant was
written for a regional maternal-child health coalition to fund an electric
breastpump loan program for WIC participants, run by the local BFing
coalition. (Whew - what a mouthful!)
I'm wondering what others' experiences have been in this kind of cooperative
venture. The idea here is that the maternal-child coalition provides the
money for the pumps, and WIC is the main referral source for moms needing
the pumps, and the coalition (well, actually me) manages & maintains the
program, for a fee paid by this grant - doing the necessary tracking, pump
delivery & retrieval, paperwork, counseling, advising,etc.)
If any of you have experience with this, I'd like to know what worked & what
didn't. It seems like a great idea to me - I wonder what we're missing!
