Coalition Building

Programs that help nonprofit organizations, small businesses and other groups develop and/or participate in a temporary alliance of distinct parties who have come together for joint action or to work together for a common goal. Member organizations retain their own autonomy and make varying contributions to the alliance based on their resources and expertise. Coalitions are particularly effective when they are action oriented involving activities such as public policy advocacy, government lobbying, legislative initiatives or media campaigns.
