Inspiring Social Change for Good in Annapolis

“Strategic thinkers.” “Messaging gurus.” “Political insiders.” Our award-winning team at The Hatcher Group has been called a lot of things during our years of working in the Maryland General Assembly.

But we measure our success in your wins, not our superlatives. Here are just a few of our clients’ recent legislative victories in Annapolis:

• Raising the minimum wage
• Increasing renewable energy and fighting climate change
• Cleaning up the Chesapeake Bay and local waterways
• Banning toxic pesticides that harm bees, wildlife, and public health
• Ending the state’s death penalty
• Increasing funding for behavioral health
• Making prescription drugs more affordable
• Advocating for schools that serve children with disabilities
• Protecting native Chesapeake cownose rays

We help our clients succeed by enlisting the full expertise of The Hatcher Group’s 40-person communications, digital, design, and events staff to make your voice and your issue rise above the noise. We can partner with your nonprofit or coalition to:

• Build a strategic communications campaign
• Develop persuasive messages and train spokespeople
• Conduct media outreach, run press events, and write opinion pieces
• Create and implement social media strategy
• Conduct targeted online ad campaigns and email outreach
• Build online communities and engage target audiences
• Analyze social sentiment to track message relevancy within constituency groups
• Develop grassroots advocacy messaging, including online and print petitions
• Write and design compelling leave-behind materials, fact sheets, and graphics
• Organize lobby days, legislative briefings, and other events
