Communities of Opportunity is building our Learning Community – a platform for current COO partners and aligned organizations to share knowledge and build capacity to accelerate the impact of our work.
Later this month we are releasing a Request for Applications (RFA) for consultants to develop and facilitate key aspects of our Learning Community such as:
- Planning workshops, clinics, and speaker series
- Organizing learning circles
- Developing trainings and coaching sessions.
Consultants will support capacity building in topics such as building strong partnerships, non-profit management, communications, affordable housing, economic opportunity, health, and civic engagement/community connections.

About Communities of Opportunity
Communities of Opportunity is a network of residents, communities, decision-makers, and funders who believe every community can be a healthy, thriving community—and that equity and racial justice are both necessary and achievable. We are dedicated to eliminating racial, health, and economic disparities and to transforming how we create health and well-being for all people. Together, we’re advancing community-based priorities, tapping into existing community expertise and leadership, and shaping policies to promote equity.
COO is supported through a partnership of King County and Seattle Foundation.
