A Nonprofit for Nonprofits

Mission + Strategy was founded on a shared vision, a spirit of partnership, and a dedication to making a difference. For over 15 years, we have led and engaged in successful collaborations within the social impact sector. As a nonprofit ourselves, we’ve endured the eras of the midwest nonprofit landscape, and intimately understand the unique challenges, changes, and regulations you face on a daily basis.

We’ve been trusted by these leading organizations

“I was so impressed by the level of insight and expertise offered by M+S throughout the entire process. It has truly been the best experience I have ever had with consultants. Every conversation they facilitated was productive, meaningful and deeply engaging. They helped us identify the right questions to drive the discussion and made sure we didn't get lost or distracted by tangential issue. They helped make what can be a challenging and even intimidating process exceedingly comfortable and constructive.”

“Working with Judie has been invaluable.”

“An incredibly enriching and rewarding experience…From start to finish, the process was thoughtfully structured, collaborative, and deeply engaging.”
