“Working with Jodi and her team was a pleasure. They approached our project with professionalism and poise, navigating complex and sensitive issues with skill and objectivity. Their ability to engage a broad and diverse population from across a large geographic area was instrumental to our success, as was their empathy and insight into the needs of vulnerable individuals experiencing homelessness. The consultation findings they delivered were relevant, actionable, and added significant value to our overall outcomes.”
