Candela Consulting
Hands-on consulting for nonprofits that want to move faster on AI adoption, impact measurement, and data infrastructure — with someone who has done this work from the inside.
The "find your own Core 4" engagement. Working with an org to identify, name, and document their program logic — how clients move through services, what each stage is trying to accomplish, and how to measure it.
Deliverable: Documented framework + service-to-pillar mapping ready for Prism onboarding
An honest evaluation of where an org stands on AI adoption — data infrastructure, staff capacity, current tools, and where AI can realistically help vs. where it would add friction.
Deliverable: Written assessment + prioritized recommendations
Hands-on implementation of AI tools and workflows into an org's day-to-day operations — not just Candela products, but the broader AI stack: prompt libraries, staff workflow redesign, tool selection, and change management.
Deliverable: Configured tools + trained staff + change management plan
Hands-on help getting Assist or Prism fully configured — CRM mapped, data connected, first outputs generated, staff trained. Can be bundled with AI Adoption & Workflow Setup.
Deliverable: Fully configured Candela instance + trained team
You have strong programs and years of outcome data — but no coherent way to show funders what it adds up to.
You know AI should be part of how your team works. You don't know where to start, and you don't have time to figure it out alone.
You're preparing for a major funder relationship, a board presentation, or a contract renewal — and the story you need to tell isn't ready.
Candela Assist pilot access is free — no credit card, no commitment. If you want hands-on support building your impact infrastructure, that's a consulting engagement. Both are available. They're not the same thing.
Every engagement starts with a conversation. Email clayton@candela.education and describe where you are and what you're trying to solve. No intake form. No sales process.
