Move Further, Faster
At MaryCatherine Jones Consulting, I recognize the unique challenges of the healthcare safety net in today's unique environment. That’s why I collaborate with leaders across the healthcare safety net to expand access to care for people who would otherwise go without.

Executive Advisory Partnership
Ongoing clarity. Strengthened systems. Confident leadership.
Safety net leaders rarely have protected time to step back and work on their organization instead of constantly working in it. Through biweekly or monthly structured conversations, we:

Clarify priorities

Prepare for board conversations

Improve internal systems

Build sustainable momentum​

Understand policy shifts
-
Translate complex information into board-ready insights
-
Strengthen grant narratives
-
Identify emerging needs
I specialize in breaking down complex health and policy information into concise, digestible insights busy leaders can use immediately.
Strategic Planning
Focused direction in uncertain times.
In today's volatile nonprofit environment, I facilitate strategic planning processes that are:
-
Grounded in safety net realities
-
Data-informed
-
Board-engaged

Practical and implementable
-
Balanced between ambition and capacity.
Clients leave with plans they can actually use.
Grant Support & Evaluation
Simplifying government grant implementation, performance measurement & reporting
With a government background, I'm skilled at navigating the benefits and burdens of state and federal grants. As a professional evaluator, I provide the independent perspective needed to design and implement evidence-based programs, strong evaluation plans, and make sense of community and clinical data. Together, we can assure funders that we are stewarding grant dollars effectively and progressing toward goals.
“The work you and I have done is extremely helpful. Our conversations have provided clarity on our needs so we can make decisions and move fairly quickly. These changes we've made reflect the priority of patient care, the need to grow patient care and to strengthen our community health program.”
