Government and Community Relations

Many colleges and non-profits spend little or no time building and nurturing relationships with their immediate and larger communities. Defining what community is for an institution and how the institution relates in the larger ecosystem is essential in establishing a strategic approach to brand awareness, trust, and in turn, effective engagement with local, state, and federal government.

Mission First Consulting has extensive experience working with multiple state governments, including Executive, Legislative, and agencies, securing funding and advancing policy issues. Our federal experience includes deep relationships with NASA, NOAA, U.S. Department of Justice, U.S. Department of Agriculture, U.S. Department of Energy, U.S. Department of Interior, and other agencies. We also have knowledge and experience with Congress and the Executive Branch.

Establishing, cultivating, and nurturing government and community relations is an essential and often overlooked component of sustainability, leveraging assets, and generating new revenue. 

Mission First Consulting is prepared to help you maximize opportunity in this arena with a high return on investment for the long-term.
