Website Design

We seek a web designer to create structure and design options for our nonprofit website. [Www.collectiveimpactsolutions.com] The volunteer should assess and incorporate our goals and needs and consider our key audiences. The designer should also assess our technical capabilities. The project's deliverable is a draft of architecture and design concepts that we can easily share with a web developer volunteer or a member of our team who will use the guide to create our new site.

Our work will take place over multiple meetings in six to nine weeks. In our first meeting, the volunteer should interview us about our desired features, our web capabilities, and our technical expertise. Then, they'll synthesize the information into a requirements briefing. We'll engage in various check-ins, where a member or members of our team will provide feedback. The volunteer will audit our current site to create a draft of site architecture and design options including wireframes, site structure, and other visual elements.

Collective Impact Solutions (CIS) works with school districts, community organizations, and cross-sector partners to build integrated systems of care that better support children, youth, and families. Our website is often the first place people go to learn about our work and how they can partner with us.
This project will help us create a stronger platform to showcase our impact, share resources, and connect communities to tools that support student well-being and success. We are hoping to expand the site to include webinars, podcasts, and news features that highlight innovative work happening in communities we support.
A well-designed website will allow us to reach more school districts, educators, families, and community partners who are looking for guidance on building systems of support for students. Your work will directly help us share knowledge, strengthen partnerships, and expand access to resources that ultimately benefit children and families in communities across California.

We have already thought about and are prepared to brief you about our current website platform, budget restrictions for the build, our branding collaterals and norms, and information about our stakeholder groups and target audiences. We've also compiled some photos and have some language developed that we will share with you and samples of sites we like.
