This paper investigates capacity-building outcomes of organizational community partnerships by way of a case study of refugee agricultural projects that were partially funded from 2010-2013 by the Federal Refugee Agricultural Partnership Program (RAPP) grant. The results of the study indicate that participation in local partnerships, as well as a network, can enhance organizational capacity which leads to improved provision of services.
