Story-Centered Impact in Action

Over the last decade, we’ve worked with school districts, universities, and cross-sector organizations to implement our Story-Centered Impact model to support their work.

 
 

Case Studies

  • We worked with Civic Commons to design and facilitate their 2020 (in-person) and 2021 (virtual) Belonging Gatherings. The events convened cross-sector community members to engage in dialogues about belonging and to co-craft a social compact for King County.

  • We worked with the Gates Foundation Discovery Center and Amplifier to co-curate an exhibition for the We the Future campaign. Our process included facilitating a youth-driven design process.
