| Building a Local Nonprofit Network...share some stories of success?

Dear Colleagues;
I would like to open discussion regarding successful attempts to build a local nonprofit sector consortium or network. For instance, how did this come about, what was the time-line, and how did it work?
Since each area or region is very unique, as are it's people, I am curious to know what (if anything) has worked in your locale?
For instance:
Did it require paid staff, and if so, how many? (please provide some form of scale, ie. how many nonprofits in network to equal how many staff).
How often does it meet?
What is the mission statement? (to serve the community? To advance the level of professionalism? To build internal capacity of each member through sharing of ideals?)
I was recently at a nonprofit conference and one such network shared what worked in their very unique rural area...truly a fine example of how community came together (education/continuing education, social service sector, a foundation, public service sector). Nonprofit Development Partnership (NpDP)
I would like to know how many exist WELL in suburban or metropolitan areas (not just merely on paper, but in actuality).
Looking very forward to your experiences/remarks!
