One of Iris Krieg &
Associate’s two divisions, Consultation, utilizes our expertise to solve a
problem, conduct studies and evaluations, and assist in the planning and
implementation of a task or an initiative. We can investigate potential funding
areas and provide criteria to help donors, trustees and staff select an
approach that fits their interests. We have broad experience both in the
processes of contributions and in many issue areas, including human services,
arts/culture, environmental concerns, public education and public housing.
We are particularly effective in situations where participants differ in their
approaches and values. We provide opportunities to air differences, explore
options and find common ground.

set a time frame and specify outcomes and products. Among the Consultations that
