Weaving Stronger Futures for Community, Education & Social Impact

Our Services

Grounded in community knowledge and equity-centered design, INTerwoven strengthens the organizations that serve our collective future. We offer strategic guidance in program development, research, talent strategy, and professional learning, acting as a dedicated partner in building more just and interconnected systems.

Equitable Program Design & Incubation

Building foundations that allow community-driven initiatives to thrive and scale.

  • Strategic Foundation Building: Developing the structural "weaving" for new initiatives and program models.

  • Scalable Frameworks: Creating data-informed learning and evaluation models that ensure long-term impact.

  • Impact Alignment: Ensuring every program element is natively rooted in equity-centered design.

Impact Research & Systems Thinking

Using culturally grounded research to measure what matters most to community stakeholders.

  • Organizational Impact Studies: Conducting deep-dive research to evaluate the efficacy of social impact initiatives.

  • Action-Oriented Insights: Translating complex data into strategic roadmaps for institutional evolution.

  • Culturally Grounded Analysis: Applying frameworks that respect the community’s lived experience and knowledge systems.

Inclusive Executive Search & Talent Strategy

Evolving how institutions find and select leadership through a community-centered lens.

  • Equitable Search & Hiring: Designing end-to-end recruitment and stakeholder engagement processes that embed inclusive practices from first outreach to final selection.

  • Leadership Coaching: Providing strategic guidance for senior leaders and mid-career managers to mitigate bias, operationalize equity, and navigate high-stakes decision-making.

  • Inclusive Talent Strategy: Partnering with leadership to build high-trust cultures and internal systems that empower teams to achieve sustained, culturally grounded impact.

Professional Learning & Organizational Alignment

Strengthening the internal "interwoven" threads of an organization through collective growth.

  • Equitable Planning Retreats: Facilitating staff sessions focused on aligning daily operations with overarching equity goals.

  • Team Effectiveness: Building internal synergy through workshops that focus on collaboration and shared values.

  • Customized Professional Development: Designing learning experiences that bridge the gap between institutional policy and community-centered practice.

INTerwoven partners with K12 districts, higher education institutions, public agencies, and nonprofit organizations navigating moments of growth, transition, or re-alignment — particularly when equity commitments must move from intention to implementation. Engagements are typically customized and may include short-term strategy support, facilitation, or longer-term partnership models depending on organizational need. Please book a consultation to discuss a partnership.
