Let's Investigate

Program Design + Evaluation

For Government, Non-Profit, and Private Sector Leaders.

We help teams build strong, inclusive, and effective programs from the ground up, then evaluate what’s working, what’s not, and what’s next. Our approach blends participatory methods, trauma-informed frameworks, and policy-aligned metrics to support real systems change across public services, community organizations, and private care settings.

Measure the Impact

Grants + Strategy

For Academic, Non-Profit, and Private Sector Leaders.

We write compelling funding proposals, build strong business cases, and develop strategies that turn bold ideas into actionable, investable plans. Our work helps clients clarify their value, align with funder priorities, adapt to changes in the funding landscape and move from concept to impact.

  • Roots to Thrive

    "I can’t say enough about what a pleasure it has been to work with the Changemark team.  They jumped in on short notice. With this being our maiden voyage in clinical trials, their ‘can do’ way of being immediately neutralized our stress levels. They met us where we were at (making the process practical and understandable) and had a mentorship mindset from day one. There was no question or challenge left unaddressed.  Every step was done with high integrity and relationships were always put first. It felt like they had our best interests in mind from day one."

    - Dr. Shannon Dames // Research and Development Director

  • Centre hospitalier de I’Université de Montréal (CHUM)

    "Changemark is an incredibly strong leader and their ability to engage and motivate teams, and the clinical sites participating in the trials is outstanding. The quality of their work is high and so is their ability work with team members."

    - Dr. Didier Jutras-Aswad // Head of Psychiatry at Cr-CHUM, Montreal, Quebec

  • “Working with Changemark has been an outstanding experience. Their team approaches every project with integrity, professionalism, and a genuine spirit of partnership. They listen carefully, bring strong technical skill, and help turn community ideas into clear, well-funded proposals. I’ve seen their commitment to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action reflected not just in words, but in how they work alongside Indigenous partners. I wholeheartedly recommend Changemark to First Nation, Inuit, and Métis communities and organizations looking for trusted and effective support.”

    - Dr. Yvette Emerson // MD, FCFP (Sandy Bay First Nation, Treaty 1) // Medical Director

  • Collaborative of Gender and Sexual Health Equity Research Education (CGSHE)

    A.J. has been responsive, thorough and professional in their approach and creates a supportive and welcoming environment to discuss complex and important issues related to measurement of gender identity and trans health. A.J. demonstrates enthusiasm and passion for trans-inclusive research as well as an extensive breadth of knowledge and expertise, working efficiently and independently to help achieve research goals.

    - Dr. Shira Goldenberg // SFU, CGSHE and Dr. Kathleen Deering // UBC, CGSHE

  • Kílala Lelum Urban Indigenous Health & Healing Cooperative

    Jill has very much become a part of our team. She understands the importance of investing in relationships, participating in cultural activities, and of stepping back in allyship in the context of working in a decolonizing health centre... She is incredibly efficient, responsible and self-directed. She provides great leadership to the junior research team members. Jill has become part of our family at Kilala Lelum and I would highly recommend her to other Indigenous focused organizations.

    - Dr. David Tu // Board Member, Primary Care Lead and Family Physician

  • Centre hospitalier de I’Université de Montréal (CHUM)

    “Aïssata was indispensable in finding solutions to barriers at all stages, from project design, pre-implementation, implementation, and data collection through analysis and publication of results. Our work was immeasurably aided by the comprehensive financial forecast she provided. Throughout the project from start to finish, and was a delight to work with.”

    - Dr. Annie Talbot // Co-directrice médicale, Direction Coordination Réseau CHUM, Clinicienne–Chercheur // Centre hospitalier de Université de Montréal et professeure
