Consulting Services

Marcella LaFever, Phd

The 9P Planning model is applicable to a variety of community development situations where there is a desire to be inclusive of cultural groups experiencing barriers to participation in public decision-making.

I am available as a consultant to help municipal, county, regional, state and provincial governments, as well as non-governmental organizations and not-for-profit entities. Choose the Consulting link to review the Model and to read a short description. You may also link to some of the initial research and source material for 9P Planning through my article published in the Journal of International and Intercultural Communication which investigated the British Columbia Treaty Process.
