Regulatory Strategy, Government Relations & Public Policy Engagement

1 Course Unit

Senior nonprofit leaders must navigate both the policy environment and understand how to shape it. This course provides students with the tools to engage government at all levels through strategic advocacy, coalition building, and public-private collaboration. Students examine how regulatory frameworks are developed and challenged, and how to position their organizations as credible, influential voices in legislative and administrative processes. Examples of public policy affecting mission-driven organizations that have both succeeded in gaining support and failed will be examined. Summer Term 1 Course Unit
