Nonprofit organizations help create a more just world.

Each nonprofit must be strong, stable, and ready to scale — even while the demands on it are great.

In order to scale impact, mission-driven organizations need expertise and capacity to manage complexity.

Trellis Partners offers a suite of services to enable your organization to achieve that resilience.

We facilitate executive transition + onboarding to maximize the opportunities afforded by succession and growth. We provide planning + capacity coaching that result in custom tools to support mission delivery. As interim executives, we ready the path for new senior leaders. And our signature term executive model® brings the dedicated, day-to-day engagement essential for learning organizational practices for the future.
