Handshake Program 2008 Recipients
The Handshake Program provides an incentive to Corps projects to use partnering initiatives to their fullest potential. This is the fifth year the program has offered an additional funding source (i.e., seed money) to Corps installations for worthwhile challenge partnership projects. The funding is intended to encourage local organizations to become a partner with the Corps. The program also demonstrates our recognition that partnerships flow in both directions (i.e., partnerships are a handshake, not a handout). The Corps is committed to creating a partnership culture within the organization and has demonstrated its commitment by establishing this program.

Mr. Michael Hosey, SAD representative on the Partnership Advisory Committee, is the POC for this effort. He will be contacting the projects with further information as soon as the funding is confirmed.
