About Osiris

Osiris was an important god in Egyptian mythology, representing agriculture, fertility, life, death, and resurrection.  The Nile River was seen as his bloodstream, and the annual flooding of the river was seen as a sign of his power over agriculture and fertility.  The flooding deposited rich silt on the banks of the river, allowing crops to grow and flourish.

Osiris Professional Services was founded by Nicholas E. Cummings, Esq., the former Corporation Counsel for the City of Evanston, with the goal of helping  organizations give life to their stated vision of diversity, equity and inclusion.  With over thirteen years of legal experience in the public sector, Cummings determined the lessons learned in Evanston can be implemented across the country.

We provide other organizations with the capability and willingness to atone for historical discrimination with the tactics and tools necessary to deliver.  Both public and private entities trust Osiris help design, develop and implement policies and/or programs that will bring restorative justice.
