Partners for Sacred Places is an American non-sectarian, non-profit organization whose mission is the support of older and historic sacred places by helping congregations and local communities sustain and actively use the structures.
Founded in 1989,[1] Partners has helped several thousand congregations and other local organizations protect their community-serving sacred places in towns and cities across America.
Partners works with the National Trust for Historic Preservation[citation needed] to help communities adapt former religious properties for new uses—and retained them as important anchors and architectural landmarks.[2]
