Strategic Plan Writer

OVERVIEW

Generation Citizen (GC) is working to transform civics education so that young people are equipped and inspired to exercise their civic power. In the past 15 years, GC has built a community-based civics program for middle school and high school students with high-quality teacher professional development (PD), coaching, and curriculum that serves over 30,000 students per year nationally. We have also led coalitions to pass legislation and shape educational standards to make project based civics available to millions of students annually. We are now in the final stages of a strategic plan to guide our program and policy growth over the next three years and are seeking an experienced writer to shape the narrative and deck for the plan.

SCOPE OF WORK & DELIVERABLES

Generation Citizen seeks a consultant with experience with nonprofit strategy, communications, grantwriting and/or strategic plans, who can help turn initial drafts and bullets for a strategic plan into a narrative and deck to share with external audiences, including design and layout.

Experience writing or developing other strategic plans is preferred. Experience with design and layout is also preferred.

The maximum budget for this project is $10K, and we anticipate it will start in May of 2025 and conclude by the end of June 2025.

As part of this work, the consultant will accomplish the following work and deliverables:

• Meet with Core Strategic Planning Team to develop context and goals for the plan and its presentation
• Review all existing materials and plan drafts
• Take outline of strategic plan and bullets and draft paragraphs and turn into a polished narrative of approximately 20 pages, including layout and design
• Develop and design a deck that can serve as a summary and alternate vehicle to present the strategic plan, with an estimated 30-35 slides.
