Mission

MRL Strategies LLC is dedicated to empowering purpose-driven leaders to harness their unique leadership capacities to drive social impact, create generational wealth, and reimagine equitable futures. With a regenerative approach, we support community-centered changemakers to strengthen infrastructure, attract sustainable investment, and expand influence. We envision a world where marginalized voices redefine leadership and lead bold innovations for transformational impact.

What is Capacity Building?

Capacity is the essence that empowers mission-driven organizations and leaders to thrive in a dynamic environment. It includes the resources, relationships, and reputation needed to sustainably manage challenges without overextending, combining two critical elements: tangible assets (e.g. technology, funding, and staff) and intangible attributes (e.g. skills, knowledge, and talent). This includes collective and individual flourishing. 

MRL Strategies offer high-level and in-depth guidance for place-based projects, locally-led initiatives, and cross-sector coalitions. We leverage a dynamic range of functional expertise for community-centered impact. We excel in supporting mission-driven social enterprises and small businesses.
