# Organizational alliance, which: '''a)''' involves an alliance board that could take the form of a joint executive committee (drawn from the executive committees of each board, each of which has the delegated authority to bind their respective boards, but typically with each board retaining some reserve powers), mirror-image boards or boards meeting as ‘one board,’ '''b)''' involves shared decision-making, including a shared strategic plan (for in-scope services) and shared management of (common) resources, '''c)''' involves funds flowing through one organization and then being transferred to other organizations '''d)''' typically involves common management (i.e., one management team), and e) could involve a common employer;

# One corporation (i.e., amalgamation of organizations with assets transferred to an existing or new organization), which involves one board, one funding recipient, one management team and one employer, although separate sites or programs could use sub-brands (e.g., a primary-care office or hospital site); and  

 

# Combinations of models 1-3, which could include a governance corporation with an accountable board overseeing other organizations, some of which: a) have a joint executive committee or joint board, b) are wholly owned subsidiaries, and c) are aligned and funded through a contract like a collaboration agreement (e.g., with a local municipal government that provides housing and broader human services, or with a corporation that provides services across a broader region, the province or the country).<br />
