We're here in Dallas for the annual #NASWASummit25 to gather with thousands of workforce leaders, labor market experts, and policymakers.

If you spot our bright Civilla bag, please stop and say hi to our designers Brianna and Eesha!

We are at #CAPCON25 at booth 409 this week! Come meet our team, grab some colorful swag & join our session on immersive storytelling tomorrow (3:30PM).

See you there!

We redesigned our office by asking a simple question: what do our people actually need?

The answer:

🍽️ A real place to eat lunch together

💻 Desks built for how they work

🎨 Creative tools they can find

Small, thoughtful changes make a huge difference in how people feel at work.

Stories change minds. Stories change systems.
So, when we design for people, how do we bring stories to life?

📣 Share people's actual words.

🚶🏾 Show the journey, not just problems.

💡 Highlight moments that matter.

🔎 Use clear visuals.

What if government benefits were approved in just ONE DAY?
MI residents can wait 20+ days for benefit approval. We partnered with Michigan's Department of Health and Human Services to see if we could make determinations faster. Result: Same-day decisions became possible. civilla.org/stories/one-...

"Embrace the complexity of this moment. We are given the opportunity to find new ways to serve."
