Public Interest News Network employs a public interest communications strategy designed to stimulate bipartisan public policy discourse and help policymakers understand the scale and effectiveness of the public health, education and workforce systems and their respective nonprofit partners in delivering essential social services. By examining workforce size, scope of services, employee roles, outcomes, societal impact and other factors, policymakers can gauge the extent to which nonprofits support public systems and where they may need additional resources.
The following organizations have common policy objectives: The American Bar Association, The National Association of Workforce Boards, the American Association of Community Colleges, the National Council of Nonprofits, the Council on Foundations, the Institute for Nonprofit News, the American Society of Association Executives.
The synergy can facilitate bipartisan public policy collaborations that focus on public interest technology solutions. The Council on Foundations and the Center for Public Interest Communications at the University of Florida have published an insightful and informative study on public interest storytelling and philanthropy. https://cof.org/sites/default/files/documents/files/private/Philanthropys-New-Voice-Building-Trust-With-Deeper-Stories-and-Clear-Language.pdf
