Client Testimonials

"CCP gave the Teens in Public Service, a young non-profit with limited resources, an excellent opportunity to evaluate how well we were delivering our programs to the community.  We gained valuable information on where we stood with our stakeholders and what to include in our plan for the future.  The team assigned to our organization was composed of bright and competent individuals . Our organization is stronger because of the information gathered an presented by this group.  Our Board enjoyed the meeting conducted by two of the CCP members and felt even more committed to the TIPS mission.  CCP gives non-profit organizations a unique opportunity to afford consulting services.  Small non-profits might not consider hiring a consultant to help where help is most needed because of the anticipated expense.  Thank you!"

- Maureen Brotherton, President

"Our agency, University Adult Day Care, works with impaired adults and has been serving the community for 22 years.  The time spent on the CCP project was well-spent -- sometimes hard, always interesting, and eventually fruitful.  Our assigned team was great.  The end result included new insights, expanded goals and a stronger commitment to our case.  Than you!"

- Olga Williams, Agency Director and Winnie Coleman, Board President

"The Institute of Qigong and Internal Alternative Medicine has been a non-profit organization for four years.  Our Board of Directors participated in the Community Consulting Partnership in 1999.  Prior to our participation, we were having a lot of difficulty functioning as a team and consequently we seemed to be making very little headway with regards to our goals.  The work we did with CCP resulted in a transformation of our Board to a synchronized, productive team with focus on our mission and direction in our operation.  We would highly recommend the Community Consulting Partnership to any organization looking to grow."

- Myrna Lewis, Board of Directors

"We at the the Church Council of Greater Seattle were made aware of CCP at a critical transition time in our organization.  It was helpful to have a team from the outside surface internal issues so we could move ahead with more clarity and unity."

- Alice Woldt, Associate Director

"The Evergreen Safety Council used CCP to review our membership program and prepare for a board of directors planning session.  In both cases, the CCP consultants delivered a product immediately useful that continues to provide us benefits."

- Monty Lish, President and Executive Director

- Barbara Hill, Program Director

"Bike Works worked with a CCP consulting team to conduct an organizational assessment for our strategic planning process.  The team helped us explore what questions we needed to be asking, then designed a thoughtful project that involved interviewing my entire board and staff about our organization's priorities, strengths and challenges.  All in all they conducted 29 one-on-one interviews and provided very insightful recommendations to guide our strategic planning process.  The team was professional, energetic, and brought a fresh perspective to the table.  I found the entire experience to be very empowering for our organization -- and at the end of the day, I could never have done that amount of work by myself!"
