Proactive News Coverage and Crisis Communications to Engage Your Audiences
For more than two decades, our team has implemented a novel brand of public relations, aligning our policy advocacy track record and sensibilities with a passion for public service. That covenant informs the methodology by which we work with media and their audiences to champion today’s voices and matters of consequence. Our influence is palpable, whether you want to reach grass-tops stakeholders, local activists, public officials, scientists, NGO leaders, authors, or other thought leaders.

“Without Caplan Communications, the EPA as we know it, may not even exist today. AFGE Council 238 hired Caplan Communications in April of 2017 to assist the Council in rapid response with its Save the U.S. EPA Campaign, and initially for three months. However, AFGE Council 238 quickly realized that Caplan was doing phenomenal work supporting our Campaign, subsequently added social media aspects, and extended the contract. Caplan Communications was vital to encouraging former EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt to leave his position and has fought strenuously for a stronger and better-funded EPA.”
John O’Grady, President AFGE National Council of EPA Locals #238
