Concept is a practitioner driven consultancy practice specializing in organizational development,  impact measurement and community investment strategy. We help impact investors, foundations, public sector stakeholders and the CBOs they work with aim higher and accomplish more.  

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
Across the Midwest (IL, IN, OH, MI, Wi, MN, IA), major cities, minor metros and areas in between are typified by weak markets and a severe undersupply of affordable housing. Cities and towns across the Midwest are bedeviled by neighborhoods with large vacant lot inventories, aging, functionally obsolete housing stock, and low property values. The current affordable housing paradigm is built on inequitable financing, unaffordable design, and income exclusivity. It's not working. There is a better way and it begins with the right strategy. Whether you are a city or county government, an HFA, or a foundation seeking to make a difference in affordable housing, the right strategy is the key.  We can help you repurpose your housing ecosystem with a strategy built on equitable financing, affordability by design and income inclusivity (30%-140%AMI). 

IMPACT MEASUREMENT & MANAGEMENT
Across nearly the entirety of the community development sector, CBOs, philanthropy and the public sector all lack for robust impact measurement and management (IMM) systems, and that gap in the skillset of CBOs and funders alike is a severe drag on both.  Most organizations don’t have a system to measure and showcase their impact. Funders, state/local governments and CBOs all need to measure, report and improve the impact of their efforts.  We build IMM systems that help you raise more resources, showcase your results, and enable strategic learning.

With over two decades of experience in the private and public sectors, we understand the varying needs of philanthropy, government, and CBOs and how to help them create better results, invest wisely and create sustainable impact.
