Nick manages the Healthy Neighborhoods Healthy Families initiative, which focuses on affordable housing, health and wellness, community enrichment, education and economic development.

He has a personal connection that brings a unique element to his work. ā€œI actually spent time at this hospital for the first few weeks after I was born. My mom always reminds me of how well the nurses and doctors took care of me.ā€

We enjoy working with Nick because of our shared values in serving the community and empowering neighbors who often aren’t heard.

One of our clients called you our "secret sauce," and we couldn't agree more! You're what makes our work so special.

Who we are

Cohear is revolutionizing how decision makers engage with their customers, constituents, and communities.

We believe that living an issue every day makes someone an expert, and that leaders make better decisions when they can access and learn from the expertise of lived experience. Just like successful companies recognize that their customers know best, public and institutional decision makers need a way to meaningfully engage the everyday experts in their communities.

From years working on political campaigns at every level, we know how to organize and engage communities. We utilize grassroots organizing strategies to build a powerful civic network. Our network of ā€œBridgebuildersā€ is committed to helping new voices get a seat at the table, and our unique model helps build relationships and spark engagement.

We are changing how decisions are made, by changing who is at the table.
