With support from the David and Lucile Packard Foundation, Criterion designed Structure Lab to explore the range of legal structures available for your venture, whether it's still on the drawing board or poised for growth.  Come create the optimal legal structure for your social venture to thrive.
 
"The Structure Lab provided very concrete suggestions, but more importantly I appreciated the way they were presented - the Lab is NOT a lectured-from powerpoint, but rather presented in a deeply creative format with a myriad of activities..."  - Alexandra Peters, Nonprofit Trustee
