FEES
Needs Assessment:*
A one time needs assessment is recommended for multi-faceted projects. The first step of the assessment process is to meet (typically 1.5 to 2 hours) and discuss your desired outcomes, review your challenges and assess your space. We then identify and rank your priorities. Shortly after our meeting, you will receive a written action plan that will act as our guide throughout the organizing project. Needs assessments are also recommended for those who wish to get organized on their own but desire a plan. Cost: $200
Hands-On Organizing:*
Hands-On Organizing is provided in 3 hour blocks. We will work side-by-side with you, teaching you skills, while we organize your time and space.
