Who We Are

We provide consulting services in public health, focusing on mental health, youth prevention, and social work. To maximize impact, we emphasize local capacity building and community empowerment. To ensure sustainability, we encourage approaches that develop, nurture and care for a workforce that experiences extraordinarily high levels of burnout.

Our Values

We believe every community can understand and reflect the strengths, challenges, and solutions they are striving to address. Our public health practice meets you where you are, supporting your learning and growth around key concepts and the stages of program evaluation.

Consulting

Every organization has a culture embedded within it. We work with you to create personalized approaches to address your needs and build your internal capacity. This includes community needs assessment, organizational assessment, strategic planning, evaluation planning, implementation support, and ongoing program reporting.

Grant Writing

Every organization needs resources to grow and operate its programs. Grant funds are an excellent way to do this. We work with you to write applications that reflect your program, capacity, and needs, creating a straightforward roadmap for you to implement.

Mentorship

Evaluation is a learning and growth process. We provide ongoing support for all aspects of implementation and program evaluation as well as direct coaching and resources to individuals and teams. We believe in building capacity within communities and provide internship opportunities for students.
