Services by Centers and by Other Organizations

Services such as the stress workshop described above were provided by the centers from two different sources: sometimes, the center collaborated with an outside organization, brokering the resource for the parent; other times, the center itself was part of a resource-rich organization with qualified staff to perform the service in house. While the former represents the consequence of a direct network process, a connection, the latter does not. The former is brokerage; the latter, participation in a rich organization. The survey of New York City centers sheds light on the difference. Table 6.6 identifies five services that centers offered parents and lists the percentage of centers that provided each service at least once in the previous 12 months, and whether it was provided by the center itself or by an external organization. Centers were asked about services that, in our fieldwork, had been most prevalent; they were also asked if they provided any service the survey had not asked about.
