In 2022, Compass released a seven-year strategic plan to expand our high-impact model for the federal Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) program, continue to build the field of knowledge around FSS, and shape federal policy – including piloting an opt-out model for FSS.
Compass is at an exciting juncture in our growth and seeks a skilled public relations partner to position Compass as a thought leader on asset poverty and elevate our organization’s profile among three key audiences:
Policymakers (federal, Massachusetts, potentially Pennsylvania), including elected officials and their staff, administration officials, agency leaders and staff
Leaders in the housing field (especially large public housing authorities and private affordable housing owners)
Philanthropic leaders (institutional, individual and corporate)
The firm should create and implement a comprehensive media and public relations plan as well as monitor the media landscape to identify opportunities to insert Compass into the conversation.
Compass seeks to secure this partner to start work no later than March 1, 2023. Please submit proposals or questions to mtaylor@compassworkingcapital.org.
As a reflection of our mission and the clients we partner with, Compass is committed to prioritizing vendors with at least 51% ownership and/or leadership with people who identify as:
Black women
Latinx women
Black
Latinx
Priority will also be given to firms with experience in elevating the profile and brand of nonprofit organizations, especially those with a focus on poverty and the racial and gender wealth divides.
We ask for submissions by January 31, 2023.
