RESULTS-BASED doesn't always mean EQUITY-based.
You’re striving to see positive changes and contributing to the development of a more equitable community but you’re…
-
Unsure how to expand your network of stakeholders to include more diverse voices
-
Aware that other ways of measurement exist but not familiar with how to shift existing standards for evaluation

Overwhelmed with all the opportunities for improvement but cautious about where to start
We’re glad you’re here and we can’t wait to meet you! We want you to succeed as much as you do. And we’re excited to create the space and experiences that will allow your initiative or organization to make a meaningful impact built on a foundation of trust and authenticity.
