WHO WE SERVE

The Helpers


"When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, 'Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping."


- Mr. Rogers


We serve nonprofits and government agencies in the fields of public health and criminal justice throughout the Santa Cruz Coastal Area, San Francisco Bay Area, and beyond.

"[Katie] was very engaging, interactive and extremely knowledgeable and organized. I asked a lot of questions and she patiently answered all my questions and made it easy for me to understand. She showed very strong leadership skills and was in total control of the 2-day training course."

— Julie M. | FAMILY PARTNER II

"Katie is a true professional. She is excellent at working in collaboration with others, always meets her deadlines, and has an innovative approach to working within systems. Katie would be an asset to any organization seeking support in developing a vision for or implementing transformative change in a way that is trauma-informed, equitable, and fiscally responsible. "

— Cassandra G. | FUND ATTORNEY
