What Clients are Saying

  • “The Creative Discourse Group, as an organization and through their associates, has provided EWSD with the critical external partnership needed to hold the system accountable while teaching and coaching forward in our efforts to be an antiracist, LGBTQ affirming and equitable organization. The journey is long and there is much to do. The facilitation, coaching, training and support has been an essential part of our progress to date. I am grateful for the hard conversation and the celebrations provided through Sue, Nadia, and the many associates with whom we have had the pleasure to work.”

    -Erin Maguire, Director of Equity & Inclusion, EWSD

  • “Our work with The Creative Discourse Group helped our team to look more closely at our organization using a series of conversations, workshops, breakout groups, and interviews. Nadia and Sue brought a clear plan to VYCC and were flexible in working together to modify the approach to fit the needs of our staff and board. The most powerful aspect of our work together was the way in which they engaged all staff and board members with several facilitation techniques to bring multiple perspectives together to highlight key priority areas of focus in our equity and inclusion approaches.”

    -Leah Mital, Executive Director, VYCC

  • “You both did an amazing job providing a safe and inclusive environment with close to 400 staff! This is incredibly exciting and it will also challenge us as a team to continue to commit to this work now that we've provided this opening for staff.”
