Nonprofits have always existed to solve problems and enhance lives, yet proving the existence of these outcomes remains a challenge. In a market that is more competitive every day, tracking results and messaging your total impact is crucial to organizational survival. Proving social good—or “social impact”—is becoming important in the for-profit sector, too.

 

Stakeholders want a better world, and they’re willing to prove this commitment with their wallets. Weaving social impact into strategy yields a major competitive advantage. A social impact strategy can help your organization recruit more and better job candidates, increase employee buy-in, attract new partners, build loyalty, and boost ultimately revenue and profit.

 

Services include:

• Social impact strategy and implementation
• Social return on investment (SROI) calculation through our partnership with the Colorado Institute for Social Impact
• Collective impact facilitation
• Housing as a fundamental health and social intervention
  • Work with our housing specialists to develop or refine housing services for greatest impact and return
