Nonprofits and Advocacy: Engaging Community and Government in an Era of Retrenchment
Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description
Explores the multifaceted landscape of nonprofit advocacy, examining its prevalence, strategies, and challenges across various contexts. It highlights the significant role nonprofits play in influencing public policy, ranging from direct lobbying to public education and coalition building, while also acknowledging the legal and resource constraints they often face. The sources present empirical evidence from surveys conducted in locations like Seattle and Washington, D.C., and draw upon historical data, such as congressional testimony from women's organizations and New York Times articles on child advocacy, to illustrate evolving trends and tactics. Furthermore, the texts analyze the impact of external factors like national crises and funding sources on advocacy efforts, and investigate internal organizational characteristics such as leadership, member engagement, and professional norms that either facilitate or impede effective advocacy. Ultimately, the compilation aims to enhance understanding of how nonprofits navigate complex political environments to represent diverse community interests and effect social change.
