For more than two decades, The Improve Group has evolved to meet the needs of staff, our clients, and the communities that serve to benefit from evaluation. Now, we’re excited to announce we have become a worker-owned co-operative. After 2 years of planning, our transition became official on Thursday, August 10, 2023.

Leah Goldstein Moses founded The Improve Group in 2000 with a vision to improve programs and organizations that impact the world. Twenty-three years later, her vision remains strong and is shared by the dedicated staff at The Improve Group. We are all grateful for the opportunity to help others gain clarity and insight about the world around them and make a greater impact in their communities.
