  • Advocacy for Social Change

    Examines different components of advocacy, including: role of and opportunities for advocacy in the policy process; relationship between advocacy, social movements, and public policy; organizations leading advocacy in the U.S. and their regulatory environment; and tactics and strategies used for advocacy.

  • Evidence-Based Policy Implementation

    Explores the multidimensional challenge of turning policy and program intentions into valued results on the ground. Understanding why implementation can fall short of expectation requires an understanding of how public/nonprofit organizations work; including their mission, resources, collaborators, and results measurement. Examines the role that evidence can play in service of democratic governance and policy effectiveness.
