Ways We Can Serve

Our services are dedicated to supporting organizational transformation, championing excellence, and pioneering innovative solutions that aim to ensure effective leadership and resource utilization, ultimately delivering optimal outcomes for all communities involved.

OUR PROCESS

It’s Easy to Work With Us

Booking with us is easy and straightforward. Start with a 20-minute discovery call to see if we're a good fit. If we are, we'll provide a detailed proposal, followed by a contract and invoice. Once everything is set, we kick off the project and get started on achieving your goals.

  • What better way to see if we are a good fit for one another than to hop on a virtual call and chat about your business, its goals, and how we can potentially assist you?

  • While our process varies slightly depending on the service of interest, it all boils down to reviewing and approving a proposal (estimate) that outlines the project and deliverables previously discussed.

  • Once the proposal is approved, the contract and subsequent invoice(s) are sent according to the agreed-upon payment schedule for the project.

  • *cheers* At this point, your project is officially on our calendar, and we begin our close and strategic collaboration.

  • This year, for Social Work Appreciation, we were delighted to have Angel Rodriguez as the keynote speaker for our Child Welfare Social Work staff. Angel, a highly experienced Child Welfare professional, played a crucial role in the early implementation of our statewide Child Welfare Core Practice Model. Her inspiring personal story and dedication to Social Work exceeded my expectations and deeply resonated with our staff. Angel reminded us of the true value of our profession, and I am grateful for her impactful message and call to action.
