Thank you for reaching out. It’s wonderful to hear that you’re exploring how to build on your experience in social impact and development as you move into independent consulting.
The Community Tool Box can be a valuable resource for that journey. You are welcome to use the Tool Box to inform and support your work with clients. We simply ask that Community Tool Box materials be appropriately acknowledged and cited when they are used or adapted. If you plan to reproduce materials more extensively or incorporate them directly into products or services you will sell, we’d be happy to help you determine the appropriate permissions.
You may also want to explore our Community Tool Box Training Curriculum, which provides a more structured learning experience and could be especially useful for professional development and capacity building you may offer with your clients. In addition, our Community Check Box Evaluation System may be of interest if your consulting portfolio includes evaluation, learning, or measuring community and systems change.
We’re so pleased that the Community Tool Box may be useful as you take this next step, and we wish you much success with your consulting practice.
