Supporting your journey toward racial equity & justice.

Our strengths-based approach offers businesses, agencies, and nonprofits expertise in a variety of areas, including racial equity, implicit bias, recruitment & retention, strategic planning, organizational change, and more.

Stepping Stone collaborates with organizations that are looking to make a long-term commitment to racial equity. While we are educators at our core, we know that trainings and workshops are not effective on their own, and that structural change is required to advance racial justice. Our work elevates voices that have historically been silenced, and supports leadership in weaving racial equity into all aspects of the organization.

We value the social contexts and relationships in the room, acknowledge colleagues as complex humans and creators of knowledge, and emphasize action, systemic change, and social transformation.
