Our Approach

We are collaborative, proactive, flexible, and attuned to the field. Learn more about our approach to training and technical assistance (TTA).

Applying Multidisciplinary Expertise

Our team’s diverse professional backgrounds inform our approach. We draw on expertise in mental and behavioral health, developmental psychology, sociology, public health, educational leadership, coalition and community development, and racial justice.

Laying the Foundation for Sustainable Change

We build organizational and leadership capacity to effectively adopt, implement, and sustain changes in policy and practice. We offer hands-on, experiential, and ongoing TTA opportunities across multiple modalities to instill learnings and boost skills.

Balancing Guidance and Responsiveness

Our team is committed to improving community health and wellness through evidence-based and culturally responsive practice. We promote the use and appropriate adaption of research-based frameworks and programs to address complex social problems.

Advancing Health Equity

We support authentic community engagement, elevation of cultural expertise, and the use of community-defined effective practices and participatory approaches. We lift up youth, family, and consumer voice and leadership.

Fostering Community and Peer Networks

We create multiple and ongoing opportunities for peer learning and knowledge transfer. We foster dynamic learning and practice communities among funding recipients, collaborators, and leaders and practitioners in similar roles.
