Norma Ellington-Twitty, Ph.D, Consultant

I had the opportunity to work I.S.P Consulting on many occasions. The project I managed was a system reform effort, which required system professionals to examine their own practices and policies and advance recommendations for change. Lauren was tasked with assisting our community identify priorities and come to consensus around an issue where project partners were philosophically on different pages and there was a contentious history. She was able to manage differing viewpoints and create a process where people were heard and the work could still continue to move forward.

She was able to assist both our domestic violence and legal communities in developing system-specific guides which now serve as a resource to our community and others across the country. We also used I.S.P. Consulting to design and facilitate our finale event. Again, there were different hopes for this event but she was able to balance the ideas and create a forum that worked.

I would highly recommend I.S.P. Consulting. Lauren is a skilled professional who is responsive to the needs of her customers and she will deliver as promised."

I.S.P. has worked with federal, state and local governments, civil and criminal justice systems, social service and community-based organizations, national organizations, schools and universities, community groups and formal collaborations to examine their policies, philosophies, and responses to human rights issues.
