How does fiscal sponsorship work at SF Parks Alliance?

SF Parks Alliance offers Model-A comprehensive fiscal sponsorship. This means that the funds, contracts, and liabilities of each Partner project or initiative are housed within SF Parks Alliance. When a group becomes a Community Partner, SF Parks Alliance assumes both legal and financial responsibility for their project.

Each Community Partner representative is responsible for ensuring that their project is adhering to our Partner guidelines and policies. We believe it is critical that the leadership of the group are the primary decision makers for each project, but SF Parks Alliance has complete authority to intervene and direct operations, if necessary.
