How listing your company on our Consultant List page boosts your visibility and supports our mission

If your organization helps others communicate clearly—whether through plain language, UX writing, accessibility, or content design—there’s one place your company should be seen: the Consultant List page of the Center for Plain Language.

As a nonprofit organization championing clear communication in government, healthcare, business, and beyond, the Center offers a unique opportunity to both grow your business and support a movement.

Only members of the Center for Plain Language are eligible to advertise their companies on the Consultant List. Here’s why becoming a member and listing your business is a smart, strategic move:

1. Be where your clients are looking

Organizations that care about plain language trust the Center. Many come directly to the Consultant List looking for experts who can help them communicate better. By advertising here, you’re putting your services in front of a highly targeted, highly motivated audience — people who already understand the value of what you do.

2. Elevate your credibility through membership

When your company appears on the Consultant List, you’re not just another name in a directory — you’re a member of a respected nonprofit dedicated to improving communication everywhere. That credibility can be a deciding factor for clients choosing between you and a competitor.

3. Support the mission you believe in

By becoming a member and listing your company, you’re helping fund the Center’s important work — whether it’s advocating for transparency in government communications, hosting the ClearMark Awards, or educating organizations about the power of plain language. Your membership and listing contributions help advance a cause that directly benefits your clients and communities.

4. Build relationships within the plain language community

Membership connects you to a network of professionals who share your values and challenges. Advertising on the Consultant List strengthens your presence in this community and positions you as a contributor to the field — not just a service provider.

5. Get real value from a modest investment

Listing your company on the Consultant List is both cost-effective and mission-aligned. Instead of spending your marketing budget on generic outreach, you’re investing in a platform where clarity is the priority—and where your audience already knows the value of plain language.

We offer two listing levels:
