TMCF POLICY AND ADVOCACY
As the national voice of HBCUs, HBCCs and PBIs, TMCF strategically navigates Capitol Hill in a non- partisan manner. TMCF stays before policy makers and other influencers, encouraging them to take
a proactive lead on introducing public policy recommendations and solutions on tough issues in higher education.
TMCF is staunchly committed to advocacy, and building bridges and alliances with members of Congress and organizations that support HBCUs. Through these alliances, TMCF seeks to influence public policy that will secure resources and programs that support HBCUs, their students and their faculties.
The TMCF government relations team leads by designing critical government initiatives to preserve a strong future for HBCUs, HBCCs and PBIs. The TMCF team understands its constituency’s needs and diligently works with key stakeholders to drive its initiatives forward.
In 2024, TMCF reinvested nearly $14 million in capacity-building efforts including advocacy and policy support for its member HBCUs.
Together with its stakeholders, TMCF’s fight is far reaching and stronger than ever.
