Welcome to my "Meet the Founder" series, where I have the pleasure of introducing myself, Catherine Sackey, the visionary leader behind Policy Over Politics Consulting. In today's edition, I'd like to share my journey and passion for empowering change through education policy, grant writing services, and capacity building for organizations.

A Passion That Drives Me
My journey into the world of education policy, grant writing, and organizational capacity building is deeply rooted in my passion for creating positive, lasting change. With a Master of Public Affairs and Politics (MPAP) from Rutgers University, I've had the opportunity to refine my skills and expertise in shaping education policy and helping organizations thrive.
Education as a Catalyst
Throughout my career, I've consistently seen education as a catalyst for societal transformation. My work is driven by a belief that equitable access to quality education is not just a right but a cornerstone for building stronger, more inclusive communities.
A Rich Tapestry of Experience
My professional journey has been marked by a diverse range of experiences, from advocacy roles to community engagement initiatives. My tenure as a Community Advocate at HOPES Community Action Partnership, Inc. and my contributions to organizations like Lifeforce Holistic Foundation Inc. reflect my dedication to addressing social and economic challenges at the grassroots level.
Leadership and Advocacy
My expertise in education policy extends beyond academics. As a member of various committees, including the Executive Advocacy Legislative Committee of Somerset County, I have actively advocated for positive change within my community and beyond.
Grant Writing Services and Capacity Building
In addition to education policy, I have a strong background in grant writing and capacity building for organizations. My goal is to help organizations secure vital funding through effective grant proposals and build their capacity to thrive in their respective fields.
My Vision for the Future
As the founder of Policy Over Politics Consulting, my vision is clear: to help organizations, governments, and businesses navigate the intricate landscape of policy development, secure funding through grant writing, and strengthen their capacity for success. My goal is to drive sustainable, equitable change by prioritizing evidence-based policies over partisan politics and helping organizations reach their full potential.
A Personal Commitment
What sets me apart is my personal commitment to inclusivity and making a meaningful impact. My dedication to promoting diversity, celebrating individual backgrounds, and fostering a sense of belonging is not just a professional mission—it's a personal calling.
