Testimonials

Metis worked diligently to understand the complex roles of stakeholders in the Staten Island criminal justice system and the broader community, as well as the service environments. Metis offered useful insights to shape modifications to the HOPE program, with an eye towards advancement and expansion of the program. We have since implemented several of their recommendations with measurable success.

Metis is a first-rate company with highly professional staff and proven results. On our last federal grant proposal, they guided us through the process with expert advice and thoughtful insights from their years of experience, all of which helped us to develop a meaningful and impactful program and a winning proposal.

Metis Associates has deep expertise in research and evaluation methodology as well as highly relevant knowledge of higher education. The Metis team members that my colleagues and I have worked with bring this technical expertise to the conversation in ways that make the analyses stronger, while also making them accessible to a non-technical audience. Equally important, Metis is a great partner. They are collaborative, flexible, patient, responsive, and committed to respecting their clients while remaining methodologically and ethically sound in their approach.

Working with the Metis team was an absolute pleasure. Their personal touch, dedication, and commitment to conduct a thorough and well thought out evaluation helped establish a tone and sense of trust that made everyone comfortable. Our collaboration to evaluate the impact of Single Stop at Community College of Philadelphia is one of the highlights of my career!

Our school district has had the privilege of working with Metis Associates as recipients of the MSAP grant. Their logo speaks to their work: “Partners for meaningful change.” They reflect just that! They are partners who walk alongside their clients, providing great insight and direction to ensure that the highest level of success is achieved and meaningful change occurs.

Metis Associates has been an invaluable program evaluator and partner with Paterson Public Schools for our 21st Century Community Learning Center and Full Service Community Schools grants.

The Newark Board of Education’s experience working with Metis has been outstanding since the partnership began in 2007, when Metis played a pivotal role in supporting our successful Safe Schools Healthy Students grant proposal and provided invaluable evaluation services for several years. Their deep understanding of both grant writing and program evaluation has been crucial to our success. We highly recommend their services for their professionalism and proven track record.
