Established in 1989, the Institute for School and Parish Development (ISPD) is a national development consulting, coaching, and educational firm working exclusively with Catholic institutions. We serve Catholic schools, parishes, and dioceses by helping them create and establish effective processes that engage people and invite resources in order to make their mission and vision come alive. Through consulting, coaching, and teaching, ISPD assists in growing, revitalizing, and strengthening Catholic institutions through assessments; strategic plans; capital campaigns, annual funds, major gifts, and endowment growth; continuous improvement; establishment of a giving culture; and the organization of development, advancement, stewardship, and enrollment management processes. ISPD's consulting processes are delivered on-site, on-line, or hybrid; coaching processes are delivered on-line via the ISPD Partnership Coaching Portal.
