Deloitte
Deloitte and Civic Consulting Alliance have collaborated on 17 projects since 2009, providing millions of dollars in pro bono value to public sector clients. In recent years, consultants from Deloitte have participated in multi-month externships with Civic Consulting Alliance, capturing a unique opportunity to build public-sector consulting expertise while making a tangible difference in the city.
Specifically, the externs participated in projects addressing regional healthcare and public safety, including:
- Developing a community policing plan for the Chicago Police Department, as well as an overall governance structure to implement the plan
- Creating a strategy to help Cook County Health and Hospitals System listen and respond to patient needs
- Developing Cook County Health and Hospitals System’s network and capability plan

I am grateful to have had the opportunity to join the board of Civic Consulting Alliance. One of the most important motivations for my doing so is the opportunity to lead by example.

Community service matters--it is not only a responsibility and a duty, but also a privilege.
