What We Offer

At New Fundamentals, our goal is to organize ourselves out of a job.

We don’t just design campaigns. We change the political landscape, mitigate risk, and build power that endures. Whether you’re a renewable developer navigating permitting, a funder growing grassroots capacity, or a trade association aligning diverse members, we meet you where you are — and deliver strategies that win today and last tomorrow.

We bring deep expertise in policy and government affairs, campaign strategy, communications, coalition building, leadership development, operations, and technology — with decades of experience leading successful movements and issue campaigns across the U.S.

How We Work

  • First, we listen. Every engagement begins with understanding your goals, challenges, and context.

  • We speak plainly. We’re not afraid of frank, authentic conversations about what’s holding you back.

  • We build for durability. We design strategies, campaigns, and coalitions that last beyond the next contract or election.

What We Don’t Do

  • We don’t recycle one-size-fits-all advice.

  • We don’t leave behind lengthy reports that gather dust.

  • We don’t shy away from frank conversations — because clarity and honesty move work forward.

Why Hire Us

We’ve sat where you sit — leading campaigns in climate, energy, healthcare, labor, and more. We know what it takes to win, what pitfalls to avoid, and how to prioritize when resources are scarce.

If you’re stuck hearing “this is how we’ve always done it” — and you’re fighting the same battles without new results — our fresh perspective and proven framework can help you break through.

We don’t just help you win once. We leave you stronger, better organized, and ready for the next fight.

Our Promise

We listen. We strategize boldly. We deliver creatively. Together, we will challenge the limits of what is believed to be impossible — and make it possible.
