About
Every mission has a starting point. Ours began at the intersection of advocacy, adventure, and the belief that purpose needs direction.

Our Mission
To operate as a multi-functional, mission-led enterprise dedicated to consulting, coaching, advocacy, and action in outdoor, nature-based contexts. We design innovative strategies, customized experiences, and transformative tools that spark action, elevate advocacy, and strengthen individuals, organizations, and communities through purposeful engagement.
We are Compass & Cause →
Guiding Purpose. Creating Impact.
Our Vision
To inspire a culture where the outdoors is truly inclusive, and purpose is lived out through innovation, integrity, and shared experience. We envision a future of stronger mission-driven organizations and healthier, more connected communities.
Our Approach
We operate our consultancy as a thinking studio, where original thinking, domain expertise, and mission-led collaboration converge. Our work is grounded in rigorous research, lived experience, and a deep commitment to place, with the outdoors as both context and catalyst.
We work alongside clients to create transformative solutions that serve individuals, organizations, and communities – drawing from consulting, coaching, and research to deliver customized, mission-aligned strategies. Whether shaping inclusive trail experiences, guiding organizational leadership, or amplifying advocacy efforts, we help clients move with clarity and purpose.
A defining dimension of our work is our unique integration with the autism community. This perspective informs not only our inclusive design frameworks, but also deepens our understanding of access, challenge, and human potential, positioning Compass & Cause as a leader in advancing nature-based experiences for all.

Every Journey Begins with the Right Path
Compass & Cause, LLC brings together four strategic pathways under one mission-led enterprise. We blend consulting, coaching, research, and advocacy into a cohesive, values-driven platform centered on outdoor systems, inclusive strategy, and experiential impact.
With a niche focus on special needs inclusion and outdoor engagement, Compass & Cause operates at the edge of innovation and access, designing solutions that move individuals, organizations, and communities toward greater connection, clarity, and purpose.
