Organizational Development
& Campaign Strategy
We work as facilitators to support organizations to deepen their internal commitment to equity and to introduce and lobby for laws to support the communities they serve.
Lobbying
Cecilia and Cyd are both registered lobbyists. Cecilia's work as the Director of Policy for GMHC provided her with the experience and contacts to advocate successfully at city and state levels, she has an excellent record of securing funding for new and existing organizations and projects, and lobbied extensively and successfully for GENDA and DecrimNY.
Speaking & Storytelling
Cecilia is an award winning playwright and actress. Her humor and passion in sharing stories of living as an undocumented trans woman, a sex worker and drug user invite audiences into a humanistic understanding of often stigmatized experiences.
Conference &
Convening Planning
We work with groups to organize agenda and logistics for small to medium conferences, including building advisory boards, publicity, fundraising, managing and scheduling, and organizing lodging, transportation and food.
Conflict Mediation
In most organizations conflict is inevitable, and it presents a moment of choice. Either move with the flow and allow there to be a transparent and collaborative process or shut it down and hope that the organization doesn't devolve. We are available to be a third party to support open communication, facilitate growth and provide recommendations. We see this work as crucial to building sustainable movements.
