Community Benefit Plan (CBP) 

We begin by developing tailored Community Benefit Plans (CBPs) that clearly articulate how your project will enhance community development through initiatives such as job creation, business opportunities, and social benefits. Our plans are designed to be both comprehensive and practical, ensuring they meet community expectations and adhere to regulatory requirements. By incorporating community feedback and addressing specific needs, we empower you to build strong, lasting relationships while demonstrating your commitment to responsible and impactful project execution.

Surveys and Perception Studies

Understanding community perspectives is key to effective engagement. We design and conduct comprehensive surveys and perception studies to gather valuable insights about community needs, expectations, and concerns. These studies help organizations tailor their strategies to better serve the communities they work with, ensuring decisions are data-driven and reflective of community sentiment.

Local Business Development and Networking

We support local business growth through strategic development and networking opportunities. Our strategy focuses on empowering local entrepreneurs with resources and connections that drive sustainable success, all the while moving your business forward.

Community Profiles and Baseline Studies

We conduct detailed research in partnership with Indigenous communities to support informed decision-making and help clients understand the state of communities “on the ground”. We engage directly with community members to build baseline reports of existing conditions to lay the groundwork for effective future monitoring.

Event Facilitation

Whether it’s an open house, forum, townhall, or job fair, you need to connect with communities and deftly respond to potential flare ups. We not only guide you in putting your best foot forward, but help with the details of organizing and administering events so you can focus on building authentic relationships.
