Groeber Consulting,LLC doing business as Gro and Co is borne out of thirty years of working in human services in both the public and private sectors.  Its DNA comes from important concepts like Social Entrepreneurship, Building Social Capital, Collective Impact and Values based Practice models.  The quote “if you do what you’ve always done you’ll get what you’ve always gotten,” resonates so true in our current models of caring for vulnerable populations.  Budgets continue to shrink, while the actual work with those in need becomes much more complex.  Society expects the provider networks to continue to hold society together, while the scourges of opioids, human trafficking and trauma tear at our collective societal fabric.   Gro and Co believes we must think about things differently, try new approaches and do it all from a clearly defined set of values.  We must innovate and clearly articulate our value to new funders and stakeholders; we must hold ourselves accountable and measure our success clearly. Whether it’s facilitation of Boards, mission/vision re-creation, program development, staff and stakeholder training or just brainstorming, Gro and Co stands ready to think differently with you.  Whether you are a large State system or a small human service agency, Gro and Co will tailor the work to your specific organizational needs.  Gro and Co quite simply seeks “to help those that help others” and maximize the collective potential.
