How We Do It

One Voice doesn’t show up after the fight is won. We’re there at the beginning — in communities, in coalitions, in the Capitol — building the conditions for lasting change. 

Our Methods

Community Organizing

We knock on doors, host town halls, run voter registration drives, and show up to county supervisor meetings. Organizing is not a tactic for us — it is the foundation of everything.

Policy Research & Analysis

Our policy team publishes reports, blogs, op-eds, and data briefs on the issues that affect Mississippi families. We make complex policy accessible and give advocates the facts they need to push for change.

Legislative Advocacy

We build relationships with lawmakers, testify at hearings, submit suffrage applications, and hold officials accountable. When bills that harm our communities advance, we push back — loudly and with evidence.

Coalition Building

One Voice convenes cross-sector coalitions to amplify impact. From the Mississippi Alliance for Public Education to the energy democracy movement, we know that shared power moves mountains. 

Leadership Development

Through our institutes — MBLI, ECLI, HWMLI — we identify and cultivate leaders who go on to serve their communities, run for office, and keep the movement growing. 

Communications & Media

We shape narratives, counter misinformation, and make sure Mississippi communities have accurate, actionable information — through social media, press outreach, newsletters, and community materials.
