FAIRFAX COUNTY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

This foundation enabled the Chamber to move forward with a clear, actionable strategic plan
WHAT OUR PARTNERS SAY
MCQUALISTER AND QUINN
Faced with pressure to demonstrate measurable program outcomes, McQualister and Quinn turned to Policy Comms. We coached their clients through the process of implementation, measurement, and reporting—ensuring they could clearly communicate impact and results to funders
AMERICAN HUMANE ASSOCIATION
The American Humane Association’s board was at a turning point, facing difficult but necessary conversations about direction and priorities. Policy Comms provided facilitation that built trust and clarity among leaders. The process not only resolved immediate challenges but also reshaped the way the board leads long-term.
ECONOMIC HARDSHIP REPORTING PROJECT
The Economic Hardship Reporting Project needed both structure and leadership alignment during a critical launch. Policy Comms established systems for tracking work, writing, revenue, and expenses—while also guiding the board through difficult conversations with clarity and trust. The result: a stronger governance model that enabled growth and a self funding model.
