Transform Your Organization

Shifting morals. The rise of AI. A total transformation of career paths. Strong Catholic institutions know they need to do more than keep up with change. They need to get ahead of the curve. As your partner in this mission, we will develop strategic plans that are mission-aligned, prayerfully discerned, and practically actionable.

Catholic to
the Core

We don’t just acknowledge your Catholic identity, we build the plan around it. Every decision, strategy, and goal is rooted in your mission, charism, audience, and brand. 

Keep Everyone Engaged

We go beyond surface-level input and engage faculty, families, alumni, and donors in a process that builds unity, trust, and shared ownership of the plan’s success.

Go Further
than Vision

Receive growth strategies that keep your plan impactful long after delivery. Whether you're a diocesan school or a large institution, our approach is tailored for your size, governance model, and needs.

Transforming Catholic Education Through Strategic Vision

Lancaster Catholic

Partners in Mission first collaborated with Lancaster Catholic to establish an advancement program that fostered a culture of philanthropy. This led to their inaugural capital campaign, surpassing a $4 million goal to raise $4.5 million. Building on this success, a subsequent Strategic Planning process led to a $12 million campaign that ultimately raised $14.5 million. Now, they're engaged in a new strategic planning process to shape their next five-year vision. Lancaster Catholic exemplifies the ideal cycle of vision, planning, and execution.

Elyria Catholic

What began as an Advancement Assessment by Partners in Mission at Elyria Catholic High School led to a Strategic Planning process, followed by a Capital Campaign Feasibility Study. The Feasibility Study recommended the largest campaign in the school's history, and Partners in Mission is now working with them to implement the campaign plan.
