Our Services

Our services are designed to foster transformative, equity-centered change at the organization, community, and systems levels.

  • Evaluation

    We help you define and measure the progress and impact of your efforts. We use culturally responsive and equitable evaluation methods, prioritizing approaches that actively involve local communities. Results from the evaluation will help you to identify areas where your efforts should be adapted and strengthened, ensuring that you are making the most impact with the resources that you have. We also provide evaluation support in the form of technical assistance to build internal evaluation capacity.

  • Data Gathering, Analysis, and Meaning-making

    Using mixed methods, we collect and analyze both numbers and stories to reveal important trends and patterns. We combine information we gather from relevant existing research, best practices to date, and community narratives. We engage in collaborative meaning-making sessions with you so that we make sense of this information in a way that is most relevant for the communities we strive to serve.

  • Root Cause Analysis

    We’ll gather data from various sources to learn about the historical context and root causes of the core issues you are trying to change. This in-depth analysis will help you identify sustainable, transformative solutions that bring about meaningful and lasting change.

  • Collective Wellness and Equity Assessment

    We help you look inward to uncover the ways that oppressive white-supremacy and colonial culture have unknowingly invaded your organization. We create actionable strategies to integrate equity, healing, and accountability deeply within your organization’s culture, structure, and programs. This work will strengthen your organization’s commitment to transformation, enhancing the effectiveness and reach of your efforts.

  • Research

    We use non-traditional research methods that center equity, cultural responsiveness, and transformative frameworks to help you understand the intricacies of your work and the implications for broader systemic change. We commit to an ongoing process of uncovering and understanding our assumptions, positionality, and privilege and how these manifest in our practice so that we are not unknowingly supporting, perpetuating, or creating new harm through our work.
