We are proud of the partnerships that established and now sustain this unique national park. A mix of government, non-profit, and for-profit entities work together to protect park resources and provide visitor services.
. The island park is managed collaboratively by the Boston Harbor Islands Partnership, which represents a range of federal, state, city, and nonprofit agencies.
The Boston Harbor Islands Advisory Council's advises the Partnership on the development and implementation of the general management plan for the islands, including ongoing park operations.
The achievements of the Boston Harbor Islands Partnership during our first 10 years—and goals for the future—are presented in:

The National Park Service and the Boston Harbor Islands Partnership collaborate with many other government agencies, tribes, not-for-profit organizations, colleges and universities, and businesses. Many of these partnerships operate subject to governing laws or formal agreements. These relationships are described throughout this Web site.
