Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Coquille Indian Tribe seeks to retain a highly qualified consultant experienced in public participation methods and facilitation with diverse stakeholders. The visioning process must be inclusive and reach a broad audience of Tribal members with the use of innovative and inclusive public participation efforts. A variety of effective approaches must be included to ensure engagement with and participation by a broad and deep cross section of the Tribal community. The consultant will have experience facilitating workshops and focus groups; experience with graphic facilitation; experience with beautiful and simple visual displays as final products; as well as other strategies aimed at capturing widespread public input. The Coquille Indian Tribe intends to complete a Tribe-wide visioning process. The process must include extensive, diverse, and effective engagement and participation of Tribal families, including Tribal Elders and Tribal youth and engagement of Tribal members who live far from Tribal administration. The intended outcome of the visioning process is to review and potentially update Tribal Vision and Value statements, identify and articulate Tribal Aspirations, and to develop and prioritize specific outcomes the community believes will demonstrate The Tribe is achieving those Tribal Aspirations. This process will serve as the precursor to the development of a community informed Master Plan, with specific goals to achieve the prioritized outcomes identified during the Tribal Aspirations development process, to the maximum extent possible. The Tribe is looking for a consultant team with sufficient experience to work effectively in a collaborative framework with the Tribal Council, General Council, Tribal Elders, Tribal youth, Tribal members who live locally, and those who live in other counties and states. The Tribe is looking for a blend of involvement and collaborative approaches that will engage all Tribal families, and particularly those Tribal members that typically are not engaged in Tribal or community dialogue, and those of less represented families.
