Clients Say

What Our
Clients Say

"Meraki helped us create a fresh visual identity that captures complex concepts in our work. They have given us the tools we need to modernize our brand while allowing us to hold onto what works."

Anabel Sweeney

Director, Strategy & Advancement

Regional Housing Legal Services

"Meraki's collaboration with The Sentencing Project has been vital in helping us and our grassroots partners build our capacity and expand our reach. Their ability to rapidly draft and distribute compelling content, provide media training and technical assistance to state partners, and amplify the voices of justice-impacted organizers has helped us build a national narrative around criminal justice reform."

Kara Gotsch

Executive Director
The Sentencing Project

"Each member of the Meraki team embodies the meaning of TEAM through their actions. They approach and embrace work goals and objectives not as external contractor but with the mindset and level of commitment of a vested member of the team with sincere interest in positive outcomes for BHMVA!"
