NOTABLE PARTNERS
Children’s Hospital
VNIZEH Consulting, as lead project manager, oversaw the development and launch of an enterprise-wide D&I training for the #1 rated children's hospital in the United States. Collaborating across stakeholder groups, we executed the rollout of a training program, while also working closely with the VP of D&I to ensure 13,000 employees were trained. We also developed a project plan and various risk mitigation strategies.
CITY OF LONG BEACH
As the Strategic MBK lead for the City of Long Beach through FUSE Executive fellowship, Veronica met and brought together over 50 stakeholders invested in the work of boys and young men of color. Veronica’s work to create an implementation plan for Long Beach created a $300K budget for the City to continue the work. And it continues…
OBAMA FOUNDATION (MBK ALLIANCE)
As the strategic My Brother’s Keeper (MBK) lead for the City of Long Beach, Veronica served as the co-lead working with the Obama Foundation on the first three-day MBK Regional Summit outside the Obama White House. Over 250 participants attended the event, which spotlighted Long Beach’s equity work on a national platform.
Supportive Housing Community Land Alliance
As a Senior Consultant for the Supportive Housing Community Land Alliance in partnership with the Northern California Land Trust, VNIZEH Consulting executed DEI guidance, trained the Advisory Committee and Board, and facilitated hiring protocols for the Executive Director. We also provided recruitment support to strategic advisors for organizational support, reflecting our commitment to community advocacy.
LA COUNTY LIBRARY
The LA County Library engaged VNIZEH Consulting to bring our subject matter expertise, personal narrative, and experience working with non-profits and public agencies to develop and execute on the MBK programmatic vision of the LA County Library. A key added scope was to recruit, hire, and train young men of color to serve as community MBK Peer Advocates.
FUSE CORPS
FUSE recognized that certain projects undertaken by their fellows demanded not only a strategic approach but also considerations of race and equity to effectively aid agencies in achieving their transformation goals. FUSE brought on VNIZEH Consulting to develop its Justice & Unity Initiative by creating a toolkit, providing project management resources, developing a roster of advisors, and implementing onboarding training for agency leaders for 40+ agency sites around the country hosting FUSE fellows.
