Taylor Newberry Consulting is a social research and evaluation company located in Guelph, Ontario. It was founded in 2010 by Andrew Taylor and Jason Newberry. Andrew and Jason are both experienced, full-time specialists in this field, bringing a combined 35 years experience working in the not-for-profit sector. 

TNC is based on the idea that good research is a necessary ingredient in any effort to make our communities stronger and healthier. For us, meaningful research:

  • begins with listening and observation 
  • requires a willingness to be challenged and surprised by what we learn together
  • is rigorous and scholarly
  • and at the same time practical, responsive, participatory and useful.

We work with social service, community, philanthropic and government organizations. TNC’s projects have ranged from small local program evaluations to large and complex national initiatives. From our offices in Guelph, we work in communities across Canada. We work hard to form strong and rewarding relationships with our partners and clients. We see our communication skills as being just as important as our technical research skills. In our experience, research is most useful when the people it concerns help to form the research agenda and contribute to the action plan.

The Taylor Newberry Consulting head office is located on Between the Lakes (no. 3) Treaty land, the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation of the Anishinaabek Peoples. Our organization commits to taking concrete steps in support of truth and reconciliation. Some of the ways we do this is by building genuine partnerships with Indigenous colleagues and communities, practicing ethical and culturally mindful research practices, and by centering the voices of the communities we intend to benefit through participatory action research. We invite you to join us in this ongoing work of learning, unlearning, and acting for justice.
