About us

The Board Advocacy Project leverages the authority and persuasive power that nonprofit board members have as advocates, helping them reach the public funding and policy goals needed to end homelessness.

Board members are passionate, credible, and knowledgeable experts in their communities. To policy makers, board members are also constituents, campaign donors, volunteers, and community leaders. Their opinions matter, and their voices are influential. Along with a powerful grassroots base, effective communications, expert policy development, and strategic political action, we believe board members can provide critical support needed to make our vision—ending homelessness—a lasting reality.
