Lobbying and Advocacy 101
September 10, 2019 – 2 PM ET
Now more than ever, your community is relying on you to stand up for them. If you think your 501(c)(3) public charity status prevents you from advocating for new laws and policies, think again! Whether protecting the rights of undocumented immigrants, pushing for quality education, or demanding safe communities for everyone, you can legally advocate for public policy and community change at every level of government. After this webinar, you’ll have a clear understanding of:
- Your 501(c)(3) organization’s right to lobby;
- What does and doesn’t count as lobbying;
- Your annual lobbying limit; and
- How to make the most of your organization’s lobbying power
This webinar is at 2 PM ET / 1 PM CT / 11 AM PT.

Alliance for Justice is a national association of 130 organizations, representing a broad array of groups committed to progressive values and the creation of an equitable, just, and free society. Since 1979, AFJ has been the leader in advocacy for a federal judiciary that advances core constitutional values, preserves human rights and access to the courts, and adheres to the even-handed administration of justice for all Americans. AFJ’s work is divided into two main programs: our Justice Program, and our Bolder Advocacy program. Bolder Advocacy is the leading authority on the legal framework governing nonprofit advocacy.
Access to Justice
AFJ works to ensure equal access to our justice system. We track Supreme Court and lower court decisions affecting the legal rights of everyday Americans, educates the public on efforts to narrow those rights, and works with our allies to advocate for progressive legislation and courts that will respect the access to justice that is so fundamental to American values.
