Testimonials

We knew we wanted to strengthen our impact measurement, but we needed to understand what 'good' looks like among our peers before we could make the case internally. CECP's Expanded Peer Benchmarking gave us exactly that—real insight from peer company interviews into which metrics matter most and how other firms are using impact data to inform strategy. The gap analysis was the turning point: it showed us precisely where our current measurement fell short and gave us a clear, evidence-based path forward. With the benchmarking file and summary evaluation CECP delivered, we now have the clarity to know what to measure, how our peers are doing it, and how to use that data to drive real decision making across our community investment efforts."
