Seth Turner, Founder
Seth Turner is an advocacy expert with more than 25 years experience working as a government relations and advocacy professional. In 2021, he launched AdvocacyWorks 535 to help advocacy associations to use commonly available – yet often underutilized – tools and resources to unlock and measure their supporters’ potential to influence elected officials.


Seth was the Congressional Management Foundation’s Director of Citizen Engagement for more than five years (2016-2021) and continues to work with CMF as "Faculty," consulting on projects relevant to citizen engagement and conducting trainings on CMF's behalf.

Prior to his time at CMF, Seth worked as a government relations professional for nonprofits and associations for more than 20 years. He started his career in 1994 at Catholic Charities USA, where he used a fax machine to send his first legislative alert. He was also Goodwill Industries International's Senior Director of Government Affairs and Public Policy (2007-2016), where he rebuilt and led Goodwill's government relations office.
