OUR STORY
Social Entrepreneurs, Inc. (SEI) was incorporated in 1996 and is a privately held corporation registered in Nevada, California, and Washington. SEI was founded with the belief that health and human service organizations are often mission driven and filled with passionate and committed individuals who seek to improve people’s lives by a variety of means. What they often benefit from is access to best and evidence-based practices and proven tools to optimize their operations, drive their decisions, and allow them to serve as many people and communities as possible in effective, cost-efficient, and sustainable ways. SEI was founded on the principle of bringing tools, resources, intelligence, and practices to those serving our friends, families, and neighbors so they can make tangible improvements in people’s lives and the communities in which they live. We are committed to sustainable, re-usable, equitable, and impactful solutions, based on the unique needs of the organization and the communities they serve. We seek to understand our clients and their needs and to match solutions that will best move them to the next level of delivering services and achieving their mission. Our team is comprised of individuals who are also passionate, mission driven, and committed to growing and learning, and sharing that learning with our clients. We are a generalist practice in nature, not focused on one sector or social issue, as we believe that cross sector and industry solutions are often unknown but transferable to other sectors with customization to meet the client’s needs. This attention to the needs of the client, those they serve, and the community at large is embedded in how we approach all of our work.
