Collaboration & Stakeholder Facilitation
Our Process
We all know that community understanding and involvement is essential to project success. That’s why we make collaboration and public involvement a priority. While collaboration is at the center of all our projects, we also offer stakeholder facilitation as a stand-alone option for organizations interested in help with organizing and facilitating stakeholder involvement with projects.
We have also designed, organized, and facilitated dozens of public meetings and collaborative group meetings. We emphasize diversity of group perspectives and work towards common goals.
