We are experienced facilitators, capacity builders, civic innovators, and engagement specialists. Many of us are former AmericaSpeaks Associates (AmericaSpeaks was a pioneering nonpartisan nonprofit active from 1995-2014 that brought hundreds of thousands of people together for large-scale citizen deliberation). We believe communities deserve more powerful, inclusive ways to come together and shape their futures.

We've helped evolve some of the most trusted public dialogue models of recent decades. Now, we're stepping forward with a refreshed, flexible approach for today's most urgent challenges.

What We Do

We provide end-to-end consulting and facilitation services for inclusive engagement processes—from initial strategy and design through event delivery and post-engagement synthesis. Whether you're convening 20 stakeholders or 2,000 community members, we support in-person, hybrid, and online events.

Our services include:

  • Community listening sessions to understand diverse perspectives
  • Deliberative dialogues to build shared understanding
  • Consensus-building processes to align on priorities and action
  • Multi-stakeholder convenings to bring hundreds or thousands together
  • Custom engagement strategies tailored to your unique challenge
