Onside Partners helps nonprofit and philanthropic leaders of social change movements wrangle big ideas into concrete action. We bring deep legal and policy expertise and a combined two decades in nonprofit leadership roles. We are keen listeners, rigorous researchers, strong writers, clear communicators, practical advisors, and candid thought partners. We begin every engagement by drawing out and clearly articulating our clients' status quo, goals, and assumptions. Thus, we help our clients start from a shared frame of reference, identify and target their most pressing challenges, and achieve their highest priority outcomes.We work across issues and disciplines. We both spent years on the frontlines of tobacco and food policy, and our most intensive consulting engagements have been in the digital privacy, environmental, and public health fields. We understand the opportunities for and limitations of driving change in government, nonprofits, and philanthropy.
