Clients

Simply put, we love our clients.

We work with about 100 social justice organizations per year through individual contracts and funder cohorts across a range of capacity-building services. We work with social justice organizations across movements, which has resulted in deep cross-movement relationships and expertise, as well as a “bird’s eye view,” through which we can most effectively troubleshoot, strategize, and build power collectively. We also bring a long history and deep bench to support movement work at every level, from small grassroots teams to larger multi-issue organizations and those associated with philanthropies.

Our ideal client:

  • Understands that there is always room to grow and is ready to step out of their comfort zone
  • Is open to brainstorming, co-creation, and enacting new ways to meet their needs
  • Allows us to bring our deep expertise and heart to the work
  • Values authentic, vulnerable relationships and being held accountable in our fight toward equity and liberation for all
  • Understands that vulnerability and transparency are key to creating real institutional change

Our non-negotiables:

  • In order to maintain our integrity in movement building, we have drawn clear lines against working with organizations that operate from a white supremacist lens. For additional context, see our Political Stance and Racial Justice statements.
  • Our work together must create a positive impact for the community. We don’t capacity-build for capacity building’s sake.
