The Partners Coalition is comprised of agencies, organizations, governmental entities and other stakeholders that are interested in participating in the Lone Star Coastal National Recreation Area. The Coalition works with the Steering Committee to develop a proposed framework that, if adopted, will establish the composition and function of a governing body. The Partners Coalition also facilitates stakeholder dialogues with other local organizations, businesses, and communities, helps to identify additional site partners, and provides guidance to the planning team.
