RESEARCH
Our Approach
We exist to help organizations change lives. Thoughtful, practical and actionable research is how we do it. Providing organizations with the information they need to make data-informed decision and strategies and ensure their donors that their work is effective.
Data is only as good as it’s design, methodology, and collection. Knowledge is the understanding and interpretation of that data. Wisdom comes from the experience of using that knowledge for change. Our work partners with you to bring wisdom to your decision-making process to accomplish your mission.
“Nonprofit leaders are looking for data to make the best decisions and design the most robust strategy for their organizations.”
Kate Williams, Senior Vice President

Outcomes Measurement Research
Is your mission being accomplished? How do you know? We work with you to measure your theory of change, and ensure it is being accomplished. We help you understand what your program participants have accomplished and if your goals have been met.

Impact Evaluation
Impact is the new buzz word in nonprofits. But what does it mean? We use the latest methodologies and skills to collect high quality data to help you understand how you are helping those you serve. How much have you helped the community or participants you are serving? Are you investing in the right programs that are having an impact? We help your organization understand how you have contributed to the change in those you serve, and tell that story to your donors.
