Being able to tell your organization's stories is imperative to successful advocacy as effective stories relate the issues that matter to the public.

Elements of a great story include:

  • Using simple language by avoiding jargon and acronyms
  • Writing in an empathetic voice to make the reader see the issue differently
  • Using data to back up your key messages
  • A clear call to action
  • Tailoring your message to each audience

Engaging with the media is an important piece to ensuring your story gets pushed to a larger audience. Media exposure can help bring awareness to your message and start public dialogue and collaboration among community members.
