A collaborative consultancy for driving meaningful change

Our collective future depends on building better systems to support more people and the planet today.

At Good Work Group, we build systems-change strategies and frameworks that empower our partners to create sustainable impact.

As a team of researchers, strategists, writers, and policy wonks, we equip leaders with the insights, strategies, and advocacy tools they need to drive meaningful policy change, transform institutional practices, and shift public narratives— building a more just and equitable future in Minnesota and beyond.


Partners in building a better future

For more than 12 years, Good Work Group has helped nonprofits, policymakers, and advocacy organizations become stronger and more effective through thoughtful, intentional social-impact strategies and narrative-shift campaigns.

We’re proud to support leading organizations in Minnesota and across the country in building strategies and campaigns that drive critical change—from advancing racial equity in education and expanding housing access to improving water quality, reimagining public safety, and addressing mass incarceration and recidivism.

Together, we’re building the future we deserve.



Our unique approach to advancing meaningful systems change

Working together to shift policies, practices, and perspectives around today’s most critical issues

At Good Work Group, we see our most pressing issues not as isolated problems that need quick fixes, but as opportunities to fundamentally reimagine and reshape our systems to be more just, equitable, and effective for all people.

Our commitment to meaningful change goes beyond single policy victories. Our focus is on building effective, deliberate strategies to transform systems and shift the dominant structures and narratives that hold inequities in place.

Our approach to supporting organizations in driving meaningful change is both collaborative and holistic. It’s informed by research, valuable insights from the community and key stakeholders, and more than 12 years of experience crafting public policy initiatives, narrative change strategies, and pivotal advocacy campaigns.
