Working to protect the rights and increase the power of individuals who are disadvantaged politically, economically, or socially, advocacy and social justice groups are a major part of the non-profit sector. From designing strategic campaigns to fundraising and building lasting coalitions, these organizations undertake a diverse range of activities to eliminate the causes of inequality so that everyone has equal rights, opportunity, and treatment.
Over the past two decades, the practices of social justice and advocacy groups have undergone a significant transformation due to rapid technological advancements. Today, community leaders leverage a variety of tools to mobilize communities and advocate for social change. The near ubiquity of smartphones means that every citizen has the means to send or receive information.

Utilizing our deep insight, expertise, and experience, we help social justice and advocacy groups recruit, develop, and retain leaders who can solve the most complex problems and help their organization achieve financial stability.
