Our approach
About us
Our philosophy is to be optimally unprepared.
We come in with a plan based on shared principles and proven methods, but remain flexible and open to new ideas throughout the process.
Everything we do is to ensure the communities we work with are capable, respected, and seen.
Our goal is always self-determination for the communities we serve, where decision-making power resides with our clients. We provide accurate and useful data, because true representation is impossible without it.
We use innovative strategies and methods that put communities and people first.
We’re committed to participatory methods and welcome anyone interested in contributing. We value each participant’s unique skill sets and ways of knowing.
Our mission
Sweet Grass is the impact partner strengthening communities with data services to actualize their own interests, values, and priorities.
