Transformative Solutions for Education and Economic Mobility
Working at the Intersection of Community, Systems, and Research
Our mission is to foster equity and improvement through education, workforce, and community services. As catalysts for transformative change, we collaborate with school systems, municipalities, organizations, and philanthropies at the national, state, and local levels to address systemic barriers in access to high-quality education and career and economic opportunities. We work together to drive impactful transformation through equity assessments, strategic planning, program design and implementation, and advocacy, all rooted in a collaborative approach that prioritizes shareholder engagement, diverse partnerships, and inclusive strategies.
What Makes Opportunity Consulting Different?
The genesis of Opportunity Consulting is rooted in the belief that those who experience the challenges should architect the solutions. We use robust engagement strategies, together with data and research, to develop needs, priorities, plans, and strategies....
Vision Statement
We envision a future where all people have access to equitable and excellent opportunities to thrive and live the lives they desire. We look to a future where education and economic systems are equitable, responsive, and inclusive, and where zip codes, race, and social factors no longer predict life outcomes.
