WE’RE DIFFERENT

  • SRC does not do conventional research and evaluation. We link evidence to policies and management to build capacity and align mission-driven organization to public purposes. Our clients, whether from the worlds of philanthropy, civil society, government, labor, business or politics and advocacy, are seeking insights and strategy to advance a social purpose and an inclusive future that is based on evidence and democratic change.
  • SRC blends social science research with association, enterprise and project management skills and subject matter expertise across a wide range of sectors and diverse clients.
  • SRC is designed to provide private, confidential research and management and program development advisories that respects your intellectual property. While we are experienced in public-facing presentations whether a webinar, meeting, conference or scholarly publication, SRC staff will never speak externally to the media or the press about your research, or your group unless you request this service.

Fees can be charged by the hour, deliverable or by the project.
