Theory of Change

In service to our Mission and Vision, if, Can’t Stop! Won’t Stop! Consulting:
 

  • Centers those directly impacted by systems of oppression and expands diversity, inclusion, equity, and belonging;

  • Provides coaching, facilitation, strategic planning, capacity building, and technical assistance; 

  • Operates with an intersectional, liberatory, and visionary framework, and

  • Utilizes arts, culturally informed leadership and organizational development, and healing practices…

 

Then:
 

  • Marginalized communities will be empowered to develop strategies, solutions and alternative futures;

  • Clients will be emboldened to challenge the status quo and understand their identities and lived experiences are assets and value adds; 

  • The firm will curate affirming and nurturing spaces that are mindful of specific needs, have nuance, and are flexible; 

  • Systems of oppression that manifest in partner organizations and any barriers to care, joy, and love will be uprooted. 

Advancing our Mission, Vision, and Theory of Change Through Our Core Values

EQUITABLE

 

We believe that everyone will live a more prosperous life when systems of oppression no longer exist and there is fairness, justice, and liberation for all. 

​

COMMUNITY

 

We are committed to building solidarity through being present for one another, learning with each other, and cultivating meaningful relationships that lift us up collectively. Storytelling is one of our most powerful assets.

 

LOVE

 

We operate from a place of love and compassion. We are open-minded about the ways to make social change. We believe Love is:

 

L = Linking & Liberating

O = Open-hearted & Inclusive 

V = Vibrational & Valuable 

E = Extraordinary & Abundant 

 

BRILLIANCE & CREATIVITY

 

We believe that radical passion comes from collective wisdom and radical imagination - expressing ourselves freely and authentically through culture, art, dance, graphic design, poetry, music, on stage, off-screen, on canvas, and more.

 

BALANCE & PERSONAL GROWTH

 

Growth is not linear and we honor that process. We are committed to everyone being their full selves by recognizing our needs, wants, and limitations. We understand that when we are grounded in community and work towards our healing, we can better live out our visions of transformative change.
