I'm so pleased to have this opportunity to serve as a communications, organization development, and advocacy strategy consultant.

After 25-years' experience building relationships with philanthropists, negotiating with political leaders, developing a diverse advocacy network, and leveraging the media to bring the spotlight of attention to the needs of children and families, my private consultancy activities are focused on assisting agencies, organizations and coalitions to achieve their goals.

Advocacy Resources focuses on communications strategy, resource development, and advocacy skills-building....Developing powerful messages, recruiting diverse messengers and reaching key target audiences.....to achieve public awareness, public policy, and funding goals.

My consultancy services recognize the importance of organizations planning to succeed. I offer strategic planning counsel for leadership development (board member and volunteer recruitment), visioning transitions and transformations, and strategic positioning in the marketplace for successfully achieving resource growth.

My areas of interest have diversified to the Four Generations. I'm passionate about children’s needs, of course, but see intergenerational concerns and an array of other quality of life issues as part of my portfolio in the making.

In short, I recognize how inter-related, and inter-dependent, our families are in addressing a range of health, safety, education and quality of life issues. Similarly, I believe that forward-thinking organizations will distinguish themselves by respecting the inter-connectedness of our family needs across the generations.
