In partnership with the National Trust for Historic Preservation, Partners for Sacred Places has compiled examples, showing how various communities have successfully adapted their former religious properties for new uses—and retained them as important anchors and architectural landmarks. Each case study illustrates the process by which preservation and reuse occurred, challenges and innovative approaches, and contact information to talk directly with local decision makers and experts.  Please click here to read these success stories.
