Regardless of whether your job title includes the word “policy” or “advocacy,” you and your organization can benefit a great deal from this course.

“Thank you for an extremely informative session… My participation prompted a long discussion with my boss that resulted in his change of position.

“AFJ gives groups the confidence to lobby and advocate because we know the rules. We affectionately refer to the AFJ hotline as the ‘lobbying bat phone.’ That service is invaluable.”
“AFJ has helped us think proactively in how we approach our work in legislative and non-partisan electoral processes…The expertise that AFJ shares has helped us become more confident and more sophisticated.”
“As a small non-profit, it’s good to know we’ve got a team of smart lawyers with AFJ in our corner!”

“Thanks to the guidance of the Alliance for Justice we have a robust nonprofit sector.”
“AFJ walked us through hosting a successful candidates’ forum. By e-mail and phone, they answered tricky legal questions and helped us think about how to be effective but not put ourselves at risk.”
