Policy & Advocacy Strategies for Non-Profits

Since its inception, Ochoa Urban Collaborative has worked closely with the National Association for Latino Community Asset Builders, a network of over national network of over 150 nonprofit Latino-serving organizations in communities across 40 states, Washington, DC, and Puerto Rico.  Prior to launching OUC, Manuel Ochoa served as Director of Federal Affairs launching NALCAB’s first Advocacy Day on Capitol Hill.  As principal of OUC, Manuel has been a speaker at NALCAB webinars and conferences, assisted in Advocacy Day campaigns, and advised non-profits in developing their first local, state, or federal policy and advocacy campaign as part of an advocacy and public policy capacity-building program funded by the Northwest Area Foundation. 

Progress to Date: 

OUC advised four organizations in pursuing their policy goals including one organization, Adelante Mujeres, that successfully advocated for the passage of a farmer overtime bill.
