Data & Evaluation
We aren’t your conventional research & evaluation shop.
We use our deep content knowledge to help your team think about and work with data differently. We are often called in for needs assessments, evaluations, and strategic planning… We can do that, sure. But really…
We pride ourselves on making data come alive, stimulating meaningful conversations across teams, and using data to create a shared sense of purpose and clear plan for action.
