    Radiance's evaluation services and workshops help your organization understand your impact and strengths, so you can learn, plan, and show the value of your work. Fundamentals of our practice include: ? Trust-Based & Community-Centered: We believe that the people our clients serve are best suited to identify their own issues and solutions. ? Intersectionality: We prioritize gender, racial, and LGBTQ+ justice in everything we do. ? Inclusion and Belonging: We pay attention to who is and is not “in the room” and why. Check out the carousel to learn more about what it’s like to work with us, and DM us if you’re ready to use the powerful lever of evaluation to bring you closer to your goals. #Evaluation #Partnership #SocialChange #Nonprofits #LeverforChange #Philanthropy #LearningandEvaluation

    Nonprofits and grantmakers for social change have a lot of heavy lifting to do these days, responding to persistent and emerging community needs, designing and administering programs, raising money, and navigating policies and politics. Partnering with an evaluator is a lever for change--It can help your team do that lifting with efficient effort. At Radiance, we help you increase the effectiveness of your programs, fundraising, and communications strategies. Contact me to learn more.

    Grantwriting + Evaluation: The perfect protein Long ago, I learned that rice and beans together form a perfect protein. Because they are also cheap, I've relied on this tip during times in my life when funds were scarce. Back when I was a grant writer, I had many conversations with directors who wanted to be able to say something compelling about the impact of their organization in a grant proposal or report but didn't have anything specific to point to. When I became an evaluation consultant, I realized that this was the missing piece. Evaluators bring new perspectives and questions that help your fund development AND program teams do their best work. Evaluators and grant writers working together help keep your organization strong and nourished, even when -- or maybe especially when -- funds are scarce. See? A perfect protein. #BetterTogether, #FundDevelopment,#Grants, #grantwriters,#evaluators, #LearningAndEvaluation, #SocialChange,#nonprofits, #ngo

    How do you understand your impact when you have multiple strategies?? Many funders and nonprofits struggle to see the big picture.?Here are some tips: 1. Spell out the unifying reason you’re doing everything you do. Make sure it encompasses every strategy and program. You could call it a Universal Theory of Change. 2. Streamline grant reports or program surveys so questions match across programs when possible. 3. Ask yourself whether you have information that shows the combined importance of all you do – and that allows you to tell others about it. These tips are easy to say, but not always easy to do, especially when you’re focused on the day-to-day life- and society-changing work you do. My team at Radiance can help. Message me if you're ready to start getting that bird’s eye view in 2025. #LearningAndEvaluation,#EvaluationCapacityBuilding,#SocialChange, #RacialJustice, #ImmigrantRights, #ImmigrantJustice, #ReproductiveJustice,#WomenLeadership,#GirlsLeadership, #LGBTQRights,#CulturalActivism

    We had an amazing time at ARTogether's GATHER IN event, celebrating their new studios and the incredible art created by talented artists from the immigrant and refugee community. ? Our team had a blast getting creative with a hands-on linocut printmaking activity! It was such a joy to be part of this vibrant community, all coming together to celebrate the power of art. ? #ARTogther #ArtsTransform #CulturalActivism #CreativeConnections #ImmigrantCommunity #RefugeeCommunity

    Our principal, Robin Horner, just posted this example of data as a call to action.

    Giving to women’s and girls’ organizations STILL amounts to less than 2% of overall philanthropic support in the U.S. This is one of the take-aways from the Women and Girls Index released this week by Women's Philanthropy at Indiana University. Data that shows how much work there is yet to be done to have the society we want can help you make your case – for funding, for program development, or systems changes. You can check out the Women and Girls Index report, here: https://lnkd.in/gdH4VNbR People tell us that they get the data they need to make their case with our skilled learning and evaluation partnership work. Message us here or at Radiance if that’s something you could use. #LearningAndEvaluation #WomensPhilanthropy #DataAndTruth

    At a time when many policy makers and members of the public reject information based on personal or political preference, those of us who support folks doing #SocialJustice are asking ourselves how to gather and present data that community-led organizations, funders, and movement-builders can use to communicate persuasively, challenge cultural norms, and upend oppression. Radiance’s newsletter this month delves into this more. Click here to sign up and join the conversation. https://lnkd.in/g6-DuGKR #LearningAndEvaluation #CommunityPower #DataAndTruth

    I like to make patchwork quilts. They’re practical and pleasing, blending traditions of past generations and new, creative expression. I started one for a new baby in the extended family this week. Quilting is about relationships, labor, and love. So is my work. My staff at Radiance and I blend our histories, experiences, and unique perspectives and skills in each project. Our work is based on relationships and responsiveness. We help nonprofits and intermediary funders build on their strengths and make their case to funders and others. We have openings for new clients for 2025. If our approach appeals to you and you or someone you know would like what we have to offer, let’s talk!?Message me, or find me via our website. (This photo is of a quilt I made my nephew a few years ago.)

    At a Women's Foundation California event this week, Renee Bracey Sherman spoke powerfully about the groundbreaking book she co-authored with Regina Mahone—Liberating Abortion: Claiming Our History, Sharing Our Stories, and Building the Reproductive Future We Deserve. (Find it at Marcus Books.) Reflecting on her writing journey, Renee mentioned being a member of the Black women and nonbinary writing collective, Echoing Ida. Founded by Alicia Walters, Echoing Ida was a program of the culture-shifting #ReproductiveJustice movement leader, Forward Together, which Radiance has had the honor of supporting with evaluation services, learning strategies, reporting, and helping to build an internal transformative evaluation culture. Hearing Echoing Ida mentioned as part of the path that led to a book that brings the story of people of color back to the center of the abortion access movement is a reminder of the long-term and far-ranging force for positive change of #SocialJustice organizations. Seeing those #RippleEffects around us affirms for my team and me why we do the work we do, helping to strengthen organizations like Forward Together to do the bold, important work they do. What about you? What gives you that sense of affirmation that you are doing exactly the work you know you are meant to do? #learningandevaluation #CommunityVoice #CommunityAdvocacy
