WHAT OUR PARTNERS SAY ABOUT US

  • Profile

    I love working with the P.A.C.E. team. We first worked with them in 2019 when I organized families from around the country to speak with Democratic presidential candidates. There was no task too big or too small for them. I appreciate that. And, from Day 1, they’ve supported us at The Memphis Lift. They helped us get the most out of our organizing program, especially by supporting us in using data better to guide our work. I would work with them anytime and highly recommend their support to any local leader or organization.

    Our team has worked with the P.A.C.E. team for over a year. The best way I would describe the P.A.C.E. team is the ‘glue that holds everything together.’ They've added so many systems, and are super organized. They also have an incredible generosity of spirit, demonstrating this as they've worked with our new and growing team.

    P.A.C.E. partnered with Project Ready for four years - helping us launch our organization, build our brand, and develop our organizing strategy. For two consecutive years, P.A.C.E. managed all logistics for our New Jersey Parent Summit, and successfully helped Project Ready increase its membership to represent more than 40% of all voters in annual Newark BOE elections. As Project Ready has grown, P.A.C.E. has grown with us - helping us tackle issues as diverse as public health, internet equity, voting rights, and educational opportunity.

    The P.A.C.E. team has become incredibly important to the work that San Joaquin A+ does in Stockton and the valley. They share their wisdom and experience with us in a way that maximizes collaboration and builds on the best of all our strengths. They bring creative thinking and great strategy to our work, but it's their accountability and commitment to being partners that makes them stand out. It's a pleasure to work with P.A.C.E..

    I’ve worked with P.A.C.E. team members for over a decade, and City Fund has funded P.A.C.E. since Day 1. We’re continually impressed by their team’s commitment to partners and by the excellent campaign support they have provided to our partners across the country. The P.A.C.E. team is unique, because they have a broad range of skills, but also because they excel at both strategy and execution. We look forward to continuing to work with P.A.C.E. to increase the capacity of leaders and organizations around the country.

    When my team was embarking on a new venture and looking for a firm with expertise, experience, and edge, P.A.C.E. was the perfect fit! Sean and Will worked with our team and community partners to imagine, and sometimes reimagine, the portrait of success for our campaign. I highly recommend P.A.C.E. if you're looking for an organization to walk alongside you as if they're a part of the team.

    My organization worked with P.A.C.E. from before we officially launched through the first three years of our existence. Before I had a full-time team, P.A.C.E. was my team. They were always a pleasure to work with, consistently producing excellent results. They know how to win elections, move a policy narrative and engage a base of people both online and offline. They don’t just work on strategy - they execute. I would work with P.A.C.E. again in a heartbeat.

    My team and I worked closely with P.A.C.E. for two years on advocacy and voter participation campaigns. Their work was instrumental in building our network's advocacy & communications infrastructure, and especially in securing the ten-year charter renewal of three of our Nashville schools. The voter participation campaigns helped to strengthen family engagement at our schools, and led to a 15% increase in turnout compared to the previous general election. Our families went from less likely to more likely to vote than the county as a whole - and that wouldn't have happened without the P.A.C.E. team. I'm grateful for their partnership and support.

    My team at IDEA Public Schools partnered with P.A.C.E. to develop a strong grassroots organizing and advocacy curriculum and our non-partisan voter registration program. The training and support that P.A.C.E. provided was fabulous: all the decks, materials, and guides were perfect, even on the short turnaround we needed. Every member of the P.A.C.E. team was a joy to work with and consistently went above and beyond!

    redefinED Atlanta has partnered with P.A.C.E. for the last two election cycles to increase voter engagement among Atlanta families. The P.A.C.E. team has been instrumental to our success by analyzing data, creating clear targets, and helping us develop and stick to tight timelines. They also produce customized creative and collateral to match our partners' branding. P.A.C.E. ensures that our campaigns are strategic and grounded in data while bringing excellent detail orientation to our work. Ultimately, their rare combination of skills leads to our communications and outreach efforts being people-focused and representative of the communities redefinED serves. With P.A.C.E.'s support, our communities have turned out to vote at rates 10-18% higher than the city or district and at rates 3-16% higher than models predicted.
