Planning. We will collaborate with you to create and/or update plans to provide direction and focus for all board and staff members, whether for your entire organization or for a specific program. A strong plan serves as a road map to success and help ensure stakeholders have a common understanding of not only your goals and strategies but also their own role in implementing the plan.

Resource Development. We will help your organization foster relationships with organizations that can provide resources to support your mission. Our support including research, strategic thinking about approaches, creating “talking point” documents, and writing grant applications to foundations, corporations, and government agencies.

Evaluation. We create and implement well-designed evaluation plans to help you understand whether your services are having the desired impact, which services or strategies are most effective, and how to talk about impact with funders, community members, and other stakeholders. This information helps you make effective management decisions regarding service delivery, respond to changes that may have happened during the course of a project or program, and continually improve services to best meet the needs of the community.

Education, Training, and Professional Development.  We can provide your organization with education, training, and professional development to build your capacity in each of these areas, including helping board and/or staff learn to conduct prospect research, engage in best-practice research, write successful funding proposals and reports, and create easy-to-administer assessment tools to help keep your organization on track for success.
