Community Focus has helped local, regional and state government agencies, foundations, and other nonprofit organizations successfully create solutions and implement policy. We have accomplished this through community outreach, civic engagement, and capacity building, in a wide variety of issue areas such as health, transportation, environmental protection, community development and youth leadership. Below is a selection of some of our projects. Click on the project titles to see our case studies (note: these links will open a new window on top of this one).
