Non-Governmental & Community Stakeholders

Strengthening Communities, Shaping Policy.

The Other 54 partners with non-profits, civil society organizations, and community leaders to build coalitions, design effective programs, and translate local realities into national and global policy solutions.

The Challenge

Civil society organizations and local leaders are on the frontlines of migration and integration. They see the direct impact of shifting laws and policies on families, workers, and communities. Yet their work is often constrained by limited resources, fragmented coalitions, or the gap between local experience and national decision-making.

To drive change, whether through campaigns, advocacy, or service delivery, organizations need strategies that connect the grassroots to the systems level, and ensure that lived experience shapes policy debates.

The Other 54 Approach

With years of experience working alongside community groups and non-profits, The Other 54 has helped design innovative legal services models, lead successful campaigns for pro-immigrant policies, and convene diverse coalitions in challenging political environments.

The firm’s strength lies in bridging divides - not only between local and national arenas, but also among non-traditional partners. By bringing together stakeholders across business, government, advocacy, and community sectors, The Other 54 helps organizations find common ground and pursue shared goals, even in contested spaces.

This dual focus, connecting grassroots realities to policy systems, and building bridges across sectors, ensures that community voices shape durable, effective strategies for change.
