And God Said: "Let Me Entertain You"

One model for the reinvigoration of the independent sector in the provision of compassionate activities is the so-called public/non-profit partnership.

This report from the Washington Times out of (where else) Washington, D.C. shows why this half fish/half fowl program model can be a very bad idea.
