TMKG understands first-hand the importance of grassroots advocacy in achieving legislative success at the federal, state and local levels. Having a “self-trained” army of grassroots “lobbyists” who are willing to advocate for your interests at the community level usually can pay high dividends.
Your grassroots campaign can highlight just about any public policy initiative. Either way, you will need to know how best to "work" the system to your advantage. While some organizations can afford to use high-powered lobbyists to represent their interests at the Capital, others have to rely on their own resources and political connections.
TMKG can train you the "ABCs" of grassroots lobbying. Learn the basics about:
- Contacting policy-makers
- Scheduling an appointment
- Preparing materials
- Following-up
Grassroots advocacy and campaigning is only as effective as your message, and the way you choose to communicate it. Communicating ideas and positions is critical to policy-makers understanding all sides of an issue.
TMKG can show you how to combine communication and action to impact the political or electoral process most effectively. There are several different approaches to grassroots lobbying and campaigning - knowing which one to use is just as important as the factual information you provide during your grassroots activities.
