How can we help?
Government & Public Affairs
In today’s complex, hyper-contentious political world, we bring relationships, advocacy, and a clear path for clients engaging with government and elected leaders at city, county, state, federal, and Tribal levels. Our team excels in finding common ground and win-win solutions to influence decisions in our clients’ best interests.
Politics, it’s what we do.
Advocacy and Lobbying
We blend strong, trusted relationships with leaders at local, state, and federal levels of government with clear-eyed pathways for our clients’ issues and positions to be championed effectively. For our strategists, it’s not enough to be at the table for just one conversation; they position clients to be an integral part of the decision-making process. Whether it’s a statewide bill at the legislature, rulemaking with a public agency, or a federal appropriations process, our teams will deftly guide clients along the way and steadfastly represent their interests.
This expert team will identify and deliver supporting strategies to get the work done. This includes:
- Lawmaker identification and Target list making
- Coalition building and management
- Policy development – including rule-making and appropriations requests
- Message development and communications strategy
- Spokesperson and advocate preparation
Public Affairs
We help clients to confidently navigate public processes, bringing the insight needed to connect public interests with business, non-profit, community, and grassroots goals. We partner with clients to advance major projects forward through permitting, licensing, and public engagement. From information gathering and environmental impact surveys to public comment periods and project negotiations, we build alignment between business and public priorities to help secure durable, win-win outcomes. Our team brings deep experience across sectors where public affairs can shape success, including housing, transportation, clean energy, natural resources, and agriculture.
Coalitions
We build, grow, manage and represent coalitions of like-minded organizations and individuals, harnessing the power of collective action to get further together. We’ve worked with coalitions that champion a range of issues including education resources, mental health and health care, housing and homelessness, climate change and conservation, transportation and infrastructure, and pro-democracy movements, to name a few. We understand what it takes to navigate the interests of diverse group when they come together to champion a common issue.
Federal Affairs
With partners in Washington D.C., our strategists work to advance client priorities at a federal level, including guidance through the appropriations process, budget cycles, regulatory frameworks and changes, and lawmaker engagement and relationship building. With rapid policy changes at the federal level, S360 remains unflinching in our representation and service. Our team monitors legislative and policy updates and proposals, defines the right messages, messengers and audiences at the Capitol, and supports on-the-ground and virtual opportunities to connect with decision makers that impact our client priorities.
We have aligned with Primacy Strategy Group to offer even more robust federal affair services.
