NON-Profit Advocacy Plan

Nonprofit is “ The Women’s Advocacy Center” (in Memphis)

Here is guidelines. ( I am only doing bullet point 5 &6 since this is a group paper)

What Should Your Plan Include

· An explanation of the social justice issue the NPO would like to address in their advocacy work

· Explanation and rationale for how the NPO plans to develop an advocacy team or other approach to help develop the plan ( Who's going to do what?)

· What other partners/allies should the NPO involve in the work related to this issue?

· Include facts about the social justice issue the NPO wants to address (research component); this is important because the NPO will need to make fact-based arguments to help them be effective advocates

· Identify the appropriate audience(s) that the NPO should approach when advocating for their chosen issue.  Explain here why the audience(s) were chosen.

· Help them to decide on the most appropriate way to present their plan to specific audiences.

· Include a strategy to help the NPO follow up with those they approach during their advocacy work on this issue.
