Political & Lobby

Non-profits need a single organization to spearhead a national advocacy network to champion public policies that help charities and foundations. High-impact nonprofits not only provide services but also engage in advocacy on behalf of their clients. This industry, serving vulnerable communities may be the only voice those communities have in policy discussions and the legislative process. Given the nature of their work, it is crucial that these organizations work to inform the public policy debate and advocate on behalf of the communities they serve. Working together in public policy arenas, these nonprofits gain recognition as a sector as a core component of our communities, and as leaders. Without the input of the charities that work on behalf of vulnerable or underserved populations, legislators and regulators will craft policies and budgets that do not reflect the concerns of the people or communities they are supposed to serve.
