The Basics: Nonprofit Advocacy and Lobbying
Lobby? You? - Yes!
So, why lobby? Why should we get involved in the public policy process? Why should we educate voters and candidates? Because of what public policy can mean for communities and people: insurance coverage for the mentally ill, job security during family and medical leave, public parks and open space, advertising to keep kids tobacco-free.
