Responsive Consulting
CIRCLE offers culturally responsive workshops, professional development trainings, strategic planning support, and speaking engagements for organizations, school, and businesses.
We believe every team can cultivate inclusive practices to support both their team and the diverse communities they engage with.
The CIRCLE Consulting team is a cadre of experts, who provide hands-on training and support. Based on your groups' need, we will provide guidance around developing culturally relevant practices of planning, organizing, evaluation, and assessments across sectors (education, nonprofit, public, arts/culture, business and local groups).
Our services are for groups committed to transforming institutions and systems through a collaborative, co-created approach. We will work with partners to self-identify their needs and dedication to improving, increasing, and bettering their overall commitment to their inclusiveness goals.
CIRCLE supports the work of a small group of consultants and trainers who offer half-day, full-day, and ongoing transformative professional development in areas of diversity, inclusiveness, and cultural responsiveness. Topics include but not limited to:
- Identity Development Work and Understanding
- Enhancing Equity and Inclusiveness Strategies

CIRCLE understands that in addition to the ongoing work of professional and curricular development, keynotes and assemblies can act as catalysts for change and engagement. This is why we offer captivating speeches and workshops to support your commitment to year-round work for equity and inclusion.
CIRCLE works with school teams to support their school-based goals related to student voice, leadership, and identity. We will provide classroom based programs or support the designing of a curriculum to help students understand and engage in topic areas related to race, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, class and wealth, ability, and citizenship experience.
