The legislative process is careful and deliberate by design. Gregory & Associates progress with intention and patience.
Our years of experience have shaped our vision to support the advocacy of small to large non-profits with one bill or budget item, to multiple legislative priorities. All priorities are important and require careful attention to create the right environment to make progress. We believe in the value of clients work and assist in advancing their interests to improve the lives of others.
In supporting our clients’ efforts, we provide strategic advice, written content and outreach to legislators and state agencies, handle all aspects of the legislative process and assist with coalition building. We creatively handle the pieces of advocacy that will make the most sense for each issue, saving our client’s time and energy. We work collaboratively with our clients to craft a plan that works for their advocacy capacity and goals. We provide updates, presentations, and speak at conferences as needed to keep members of organizations apprised of our work. Ensuring that it is a collaborative and rewarding process.
