DIG believes in empowering nonprofit organizations, consortiums, and public-private partnerships to navigate the complex landscape of government relations and works closely with clients to develop strategies that generate positive outcomes in advocacy, policy, and community impact. With a dual focus on fostering meaningful connections with public officials (local, state, and federal) and crafting outcomes-oriented messaging, organizations can chart a path toward achieving key objectives in policy, legislation, and fundraising.

Our collaborative approach centers your vision for change and aligns with the people and opportunities within your community, district, and state.

1. Setting Clear Objectives: Articulate and align with clear goals related to your mission and theory of change.  

2. Stakeholder Mapping and Engagement: Identify and prioritize key stakeholders, creating a targeted approach for relationship building with the right people at the right time.

3. Message Development and Engagement: Craft compelling messages that resonate with legislators and policymakers, enhancing the effectiveness of your advocacy efforts.

4. Training and Capacity Building: Empower your team with the skills and knowledge necessary to navigate the intricacies of government relations on an ongoing basis.

While DIG consultants do not serve as lobbyists, our commitment to your organization extends beyond strategy development with additional services offered to implement and execute your government relations strategy.

Let us serve as your guide towards a successful government relations strategy. For a deeper conversation, please contact Senior Impact Advisor Nichole Belford.
