Public Policy Consulting
DEI supports government agencies, nonprofits, and private-sector partners in designing and implementing policies that achieve measurable impact.
We focus on operationalizing policy, ensuring initiatives are executable, coordinated, and sustainable across complex governance environments.
Experience Across Complex Policy Environments
Our experience spans federal, state, and local government; justice and public safety organizations; national nonprofits; and private-sector partners supporting public missions. We bring particular depth in justice systems, crime prevention, intergovernmental coordination, and federally funded initiatives requiring alignment across agencies and jurisdictions.
