Your QuakeCare experience starts with a complimentary 30-minute consultation to discuss your organization’s specific needs and challenges. From there, a QuakeLab Functional Expert will be assigned to you and will help co-create a year-long vision document that captures the goals and desired outcomes that we hope to accomplish together.
-
Yes! QuakeCare is a monthly retainer fee that gives you ongoing access to the QuakeLab team. This kind of work (i.e. real structural and behavioural change) requires time and a firm commitment to do the work.
We are happy to accept monthly payments, however, if you decide to pay the agreement in one full payment, we can offer you a discount!
-
Yes and no! QuakeCare isn’t a substitute for the project-specific work we offer (like our Design Thinking for Inclusion process), but rather a support for your ongoing DE&I efforts. However, we are more than happy to have a conversation about other additional options that might be possible within the package you have selected.
-
QuakeCare can help with everything from:
Tackling a new pain point or road block in your DE&I journey,
supporting new teams/team members on DE&I strategy implementation,
helping ERGs establish their purpose and be effective changemakers,
program measurement and evaluation, and more
-
No, but it’s helpful! An audit takes a full look at your organization’s workplace policies, procedures and culture, to help map out a strategic plan for our work together. Full workplace audits are not included in QuakeCare, however, if your organization hasn’t completed an audit yet, your QuakeCare journey will start with a comprehensive review of your existing DEI strategy to identify what you already know (or don't know) and how we can best support you.
If you do want to run a full audit before signing up for QuakeCare, get in touch!

No. QuakeCare is not an alternative for crisis communications support. If a crisis should emerge while we’re already working together, we’re happy to support you in building a response plan that aligns with what you’re already doing and allows you to take accountability.
-
No. QuakeLab does not facilitate one-off training. Credible research has shown that unconscious bias training can actually make stereotypes feel more significant because most biases are conscious – not unconscious*.
*People with long-established biases are highly likely to have their conscious biases reinforced by an anti-racism/bias training because these trainings often frame bigotry, racism, and discrimination as a commonly-held belief. It can also create and foster workplace cultures of moral licensing, where people feel that, because they’ve “been trained in anti-racism”, their actions are inherently good. These trainings can also lead to a reduction in upward mobility for marginalized groups.
-
We are open to creating custom training sessions (e.g. how to integrate equity into your product design, HR policies, hiring practices, etc.) for your team within the hours included in the QuakeCare package you’ve selected.
