ESTABLISHING LINES OF COMMUNICATIONS WITH YOUR OPPOSITION’S TRADITIONAL ALLIES

In advocacy work, you often want all the support you can get. You can think of possible support as arranged in concentric circles. The innermost circle contains you and your closest, most committed allies- your core group. The next circle out contains your natural allies- those individuals and organizations that share your beliefs and values, and stand to benefit or see their values confirmed by the success of your advocacy effort.
