Areas of Practice
Funding
We understand that advocacy objectives are usually pocketbook issues. Capitol Advocacy Partners specializes in saving clients money and helping them secure federal funding. We provide a comprehensive strategy to secure funding that includes identifying funding opportunities, advocating for those funding opportunities through the legislative and regulatory process, and engaging partners and program officials to meet funding requirements as well as your program objectives. In addition to grant monitoring and advocacy, we can write your applications utilizing our experienced team of writers who understand intimate process details.
LEGISLATION & Regulation
Capitol Advocacy Partners can help you achieve objectives through legislation and regulations. We'll work with you to determine what can help or hurt you before turning our attention to achieving a legislative outcome that benefits you. We'll prepare and regularly update a legislative and regulatory matrix for monitoring issues. We are fluent in drafting and amending legislation and understand the complex process and the time that it takes to achieve results.
DC Advocacy Days and Capitol Hill Briefings
We think it's important for you to come to Washington and engage directly with decision-makers. We will handle every juncture of your DC advocacy itinerary and ensure that your trip is worth the time and cost. In addition, issue briefings provide an excellent opportunity to share your position with many decision-makers at once. Capitol Advocacy Partners has a reputation for executing successful briefings from beginning to end. We'll secure a briefing room and sponsors, create a targeted invite list, and get the right people from the Hill and pertinent federal agencies to attend. Capitol Advocacy Partners can engage the media and won't forget the follow up!
RESEARCH & ANALYSIS
Smart, timely research and policy analysis can be the difference between a successful legislative strategy and one that fails to get off the ground. We'll manage and execute research projects to help build the evidence you need for long term policy success in Congress and for multi-state agendas.
Advocacy Training & Curriculum Development
Organization leadership, staff and members can be powerful advocates to advance your interests, but you have to know how to employ them effectively. Capitol Advocacy Partner professionals will work with your organization to create and execute an advocacy strategy that harnesses your own resources into an advocacy force that can be leveraged to pursue your federal goals. We will work with your team to develop an effective training curriculum that gets your team ready for engagement and invested in government relations success.
Multi-State Policy Strategy
In select policy areas we work with clients to put together multi-state policy campaigns that on-the-ground members and affiliates can manage and execute with fidelity and success.
