Helping agencies achieve better outcomes for children and families

CWLA’s consultation team works nationwide to help build stronger organizations and communities so that children are safer, have opportunities for healthy development and well-being, and so that they and their families have the services and supports they need to flourish.

Expertise and Innovation

CWLA’s consultants have extensive experience working in both public and private child-serving organizations. Their skills and knowledge have been developed through years of experience as direct-service social workers, administrators and CEOs, planners, and researchers. CWLA consultants are skilled at communication, group facilitation, planning, program administration, evaluation and assessment, and analysis. They regularly draw upon CWLA’s professional development and training, public policy, program, and research resources to stay abreast of evidence based and innovative practices, legislative changes, and promising program and management models.
