Change Requires Communication.  

Using traditional methods (presentations) and nontraditional (audio podcasts and info sessions) we have worked to share data from street corners to data round tables to board rooms.

  • We present in a manner that everyone can understand. 
  • We engage community leaders and build their capacity to incorporate data-driven decision-making processes. 
  • We are known for our effective style of facilitation that offers a blend of theory, practice, the arts and insight in an engaging, interactive and relaxed setting.

Our experience facilitating conversations and sharing data are grounded in our belief in the power of being heard. We believe that the structure of society in general, voices of those among us in positions of power often appear to get heard more often, particularly when making decisions that impact children, family and community. Data is a great equalizer. It allows more voices to be heard.  Thus, our All Voices Matter approach to data sharing results in broad buy-in that focuses on authentic stakeholder input.
