Board Development and Planning
Driving your vision and mission
It is the board of an organization that is the holder of the vision and mission, that drives the results and ensures there are resources in place to meet the goals. Mission Aligned provides your board members with training and resources to support them in their roles. We specialize in strategic planning exercises that result in concrete, measurable objectives that enable board and staff to remain focused on the mission, on why the organization even exists.

Creating an organization aligned to your mission
​
Often it is passion that drives the founding of a nonprofit, passion for a cause. What happens when there is no organizational structure or process to support that passion? At Mission Aligned we know that creating policies and procedures, growing your structures as you grow, and succession planning are vital to ensure that the organization is still meeting that mission years later. One of our former clients called this work "like watching paint dry". Let us help you make sure you have the right foundations in place to give you the ability to focus on your passion.

Policies and procedures

Targeting programs aligned to mission
Programs and services are where the "rubber meets the road". From program planning to program evaluation, organizations are able to maximize their resources towards meeting their goals and achieving their mission. Success breeds more success and you are able to attract more resources as you can demonstrate how your programs and/or services are meeting and exceeding expectations. This requires careful planning and project management so that everything is in alignment. Mission Aligned is expert at project management of program planning, delivery and evaluation.
Let us help you with:
Program planning
Project Management
Evaluation of programs
