About Jodi Petersen
I am a community psychologist and evaluator experienced in applied research and administration in the nonprofit, criminal justice, and education sectors. I help nonprofits, courts, educational institutions, and government entities define their impact, measure it, and use those data to drive decisions. I employ participatory approaches and work with the community to facilitate social change efforts to increase equity and improve outcomes.
