INCLUSIVE EVALUATION SERVICES
We design and deliver comprehensive, inclusive evaluation services for mission-driven organizations who do “good works”: non-profits, schools, and community-serving organizations, municipalities, and goverment agencies who focus on improving communities, K-12 schools, STEM education, Music & Arts education, public health, youth development, and leadership.
Our inclusive evaluation services include program evaluation, project evaluation, and strategic planning. We also provide technical assistance and training, such as survey audits and facilitated workshops. We apply a principled approach to our inclusive evaluation services: center community experience, amplify community voice, and empower meaningful participation.

We support organizations to generate evidence of impact and continuous improvement. We provide a wide-range of methodologies that are respectful, responsive and consider the perspectives of participants and stakeholders: surveys, focus groups, interviews, observations, curriculum review, assessments, structured reflections, and artifact analysis. We synthesize our evaluation findings into a narrative of text and visuals that communicates progress and impact and amplifies the voices of participants, leaders, team members, and partners.
We generate a set of evidence-based recommendations related to continuous learning and improvement, strengthening partnerships, and centering equity. We craft our data-informed advice and suggested next steps with care for the communities our clients serve, consideration for organizational goals and values, and with the intent to position organizations for increased funding, growth and greater impact.
