Media Advocacy: Strategic Use of News Media to Prompt Policy Changes

Civil rights march on Washington, D.C. by Warren K. Leffler, 1963, Year, Prints & Photographs Division, Library of Congress, LC-DIG-ppmsca-03128.

Organizers of the Civil Rights protests of the 1960's knew their marches and sit-ins would get media attention. That media attention led to reversals of long-standing Jim Crow segregationist policies. That was media advocacy.

Health and Human Services non-​profits advocate for policy ​changes to achieve their missions.




Adding News Media to your ​Advocacy Toolbox will boost your ​efforts tremendously.

Cynthia has a wide range of experience helping nonprofits implement and maintain media advocacy for policy awareness and implementation.

Digital Wealth Academy

In this era of skyroicketing prices affecting ​everything from rent, groceries, and any ​other product or service you need for ​living, finding extra money is a MUST. I ​recently began learning about digital ​marketing through the Digital Marketing ​Academy. I am creating digital products in ​the self-improvement/health/wellness ​niche.


Digital marketing is a multi-billion dollar ​industry and isn’t going anywhere any time ​soon. The thing I love the most about ​digital products is that they work for ANY ​niche or industry! Plus, you only have to ​create something once and you’re able to ​sell it over and over again with low/no ​overheads for 100% profit.

I invite you to take a look at this (free) guide ​to digital marketing to see if this is something ​you’d like to try, as a side hustle or maybe a ​retirement hustle!!
