Harrisburg, PA (PRWeb) April 1, 2018—Keystone Human Services is pleased to announce the acquisition of Partnerships for People, a New Jersey-based human services organization. The acquisition is part of Keystone’s strategy of Advancing the Human Spirit by growing both domestically and internationally.
