Advocacy Institute Inc (c3)

Organization Description
At the Advocacy Institute, our mission is to support social justice organizations to build the advocacy skills, knowledge, and power they need to shape government policy for a more just and equitable New York. Currently, the New Yorkers who are most affected by injustice have little say in our state and local policies. We provide trainings, tools, and consulting to a myriad of organizations so that more New Yorkers can organize effectively to change the policies that affect them.
2025 Programs
We will continue to train individuals at social justice organizations throughout New York State on the nuts and bolts of state- and local-level legislative advocacy. We will also serve nearly 60-70 social justice organizations through our membership model, providing 1-on-1 legislative consulting to help our member organizations refine and reach their campaign goals and build on what they learn in our trainings in a longer-term way. Finally, we will offer an intensive leadership development program that aims to build the leadership of women of color in legislative advocacy in New York.
