About REACH Consulting

Research, Evaluation, and Analytics for Community Health

REACH is an independent consulting firm focused on research, program and policy evaluations, and qualitative and quantitative data analysis. We work with communities and stakeholders to examine public health and social issues. REACH specializes in using data to inform critical programmatic and policy decisions. All our work is guided by our core values of collaboration, rigor, and utility.

Collaboration

Together, we'll figure out which questions you need answered. We'll help you plan and prioritize. We'll select and use methods that are appropriate given your context. 

Rigor

Our work is rigorous and credible. We refer to the latest scientific evidence and engage our communities and stakeholders. You can be confident in the data and the answers we find.

Utility

Our goal is to provide actionable information. We want our results to be used for program planning and decision-making to improve health outcomes and advance health equity.

We recently relocated from Anchorage, AK to Portland, OR, and we collaborate with clients across the United States and internationally.

What We Do

At REACH, we help you tell the story of your program. We use data to understand the impact of your work, all with the intention of creating positive change and improving the health and wellbeing of communities. We provide support in study design, data collection, data analysis, and dissemination efforts. Our clients include federal, state, and local government agencies; Tribal Entities; nonprofits; healthcare organizations; and other private-sector groups.

​

Whether your goal is to better understand a need, improve a program, implement a new process, or estimate the impact of a policy, we'll work with you to design a study to answer your most important questions, such as:

​

  • How is this program or policy being implemented?

  • What is the evidence or promising practices related to this program or policy?

  • What process and outcome measures best tell the story of this program or policy? 

  • Is the program or policy working?

  • How can we improve the program?

  • How is this program or policy working to advance health equity?

  • How can we effectively disseminate findings to stakeholders?
