PUBLIC

Founded in 2017 as Stuart Collective, PUBLIC began on the frontlines of major fights for climate justice, public education, healthcare access, and working families. Together with our partners, we’ve helped secure billions in new funding for schools, elect transformational leaders, and pass policies that protect everyday people. But too often, we saw that good ideas weren’t enough. We are powerful when we come together, but good ideas get drowned out when leaders are stuck reacting instead of leading. Smart strategy and polling would sit unused. Coalition messages got diluted. Communications teams were asked to do too much with too little. And narrative power—the kind that shifts opinion and builds lasting support—kept falling through the cracks. So in 2024, we reimagined what we do—and how we do it. Today, PUBLIC is a strategy lab built for campaigns, coalitions, and cause-driven teams who need to move fast and message smarter. We help clients: > Test what works (polling, message testing, narrative insight) > Reach the right people (digital strategy, aligned creative, ad campaigns) > Persuade with clarity (media training, op-eds, thought leadership, media placement) We turn research into real-world deliverables—tools your team can actually use. Not another comms plan that sits on a shelf. Not a deck that disappears. We partner with: - Advocacy organizations and nonprofits - PACs, C3s, and C4s preparing for 2026 - Public agencies navigating scrutiny and change - Coalitions that need message alignment across diverse partners - Foundations and funders seeking high-impact, movement-aligned strategy PUBLIC exists to help good ideas win public support—because in today’s media and political environment, even the best ideas need help being heard. We believe movements don’t move themselves. People do. And we’re here to support those people with clarity, speed, and strategy that works. 🧭 Learn more: publiccampaigns.com
