The Reilly Group

What The Reilly Group does

The Reilly Group, Inc. is a Washington, DC-based, founder-owned professional services firm specializing in public affairs, corporate social responsibility, coalition building, and advocacy campaigns focused on health and wellbeing. Founded by Colleen Reilly, who serves as President and CEO, the firm serves federal agencies (notably HHS), major national nonprofits (Mental Health America, March of Dimes, Susan G. Komen, American Psychiatric Foundation, Postpartum Support International), educational institutions, and corporations (Eli Lilly, Canyon Ranch). Service offerings include public affairs strategy, CSR program development, public and professional education campaigns, alliance building and advocacy, youth-led conferences, and thought leadership — delivered through proprietary methodologies including the PACE Process, the #StrongerTogether Video Challenge, and Collective Impact initiatives.

The firm's core capability is convening and managing multi-stakeholder coalitions, exemplified by the Mind the Gap Coalition (40+ organizations focused on perinatal mental health) and the Typical or Troubled school mental health program (37+ states, 90,000+ staff trained). Technical capabilities center on campaign development, video production for social impact, and digital engagement for mental health advocacy rather than a software platform. The firm has no app, no API, no disclosed AI/ML capabilities, and no patents. Revenue is generated through project-based consulting engagements, strategic advisory services, and program management, with pricing custom-quoted per engagement and not publicly disclosed.

The firm operates as a boutique practice with approximately 11 named team members, leveraging senior advisors with direct federal government experience (HHS, SAMHSA, NIMH) and major NGO leadership backgrounds. Distribution is direct through executive-level client engagement and referral networks, with thought leadership amplified via LinkedIn, Instagram, media appearances, webinars, and national conferences. The Reilly Group is privately held with no disclosed institutional investment, funding rounds, acquisitions, or parent company.
