We can help you

Civica supports mission-driven organizations. 

Our clients are nonprofit organizations, government agencies, and private sector companies that want to sharpen their strategies, build capacity, or drive policy change.

Our Approach

At Civica, we start with deep listening to understand our clients’ goals and assess what’s working. We then help clients define clear priorities and tightly align their activities to those goals.

Where needed, we develop implementation plans that have adaptability as a core feature.  

Civica’s approach draws on a dynamic organizational development model pioneered by the Human Systems Dynamics Institute.

Real World Experience

Civica consultants bring real world experience to our clients. 

We have founded and run nonprofit organizations, including a trade association; led congressional committees; served as press secretaries and political appointees; advised presidential campaigns; engaged grasstops leaders; organized grassroots movements; and worked as senior consultants. 

Our CEO, Ilir Zherka, serves as the lead consultant with one or more Civica team members joining the effort.

Community is Key 

We believe in the collective power of community, a conviction that inspired the name Civica.

Whether it's community leaders, organizational members, or clients, every organization has stakeholders that are critical to its success.

Civica reviews our client’s existing internal and external engagement efforts, and we develop strategies that capitalize on support from current stakeholders and champions while also cultivating new allies.
