Our Approach
We take an unconventional approach to advocacy.
Since 1994, we've advanced some of the most crucial policies. From holding elected officials accountable to criminal justice reform, we are impacting people's lives for the better.
As fierce collaborators and financial, legal, and political experts, we've got a secret sauce.
We strategically navigate the complexities of advocacy
We're financial experts, legal counselors, and political advisors. We have all the experience needed to help you navigate the complexities of advocacy while staying fully compliant. We know the rule book inside and out.
We shape policies that work for the people most affected by injustice
We are committed to building political power with and for the people most affected by injustice. We believe these communities have the experiential wisdom and policy solutions we need. Equity is at the center of our work.
We invest in advocacy that delivers the greatest return on impact
Advocacy is always a critical investment for impact, delivering a great return, time and time again. From ballot measure campaigns to supporting candidates to holding leaders accountable, we've seen the power of coalitions and leaders to transform policies.
Tides Advocacy has come through for us again and again.
