We teach the methods of Equity-Centered Design to transform the way teams communicate, innovate, serve, and lead.

Our Approach

Our methods are grounded in Human-Centered Design, a problem solving process that has roots in the design field. It’s a tool that has long helped people understand and solve complex problems, keeping people at the center. When embedded with equity principles, we believe it’s capable of community transformation.
