About Us

Change takes organizing. But organizing is also changing.

Just Strategy is a team of experienced organizers. We develop campaigns that build power and move people into action. We also partner with social movement organizations. We improve their impact using strategic planning, training, political education, and mentoring.

“LeeAnn Hall and her team have consistently been innovators. Building creative and powerful strategies, winning campaigns, and building long-term power in communities across the country.”

— Dorian Warren, Executive Director, Community Change

Today’s social movements must get back to proven principles of grassroots organizing. And they also need to innovate to meet the challenge of the times. We excel at both.

We have won victories at the local, state, and federal levels. Members of our team were key to winning the Affordable Care Act and Farmworker Minimum Wage in Idaho and other policy victories. Our team has a proven record of racial justice and economic justice work. We draw lessons from movement history and personal experience to develop effective strategies. We pair training with organizing practice to teach social change.

Just Strategy also helps organizations audit their organizing programs and campaigns to sharpen their strategy and staff management. If you are interested in working with us, email info@juststrategy.org.

Just Strategy’s 501(c)(3) sister organization is the Alliance for a Just Society.
