Built on Client Victories.


Founded in 1996, DCI Group started as a grassroots firm. We quickly developed into a full-service company providing all the services – coalition and third party work, media relations, digital services, and field work – that clients need for a fully-developed “outside game” to support their public policy campaigns. Our work applies equally to regulatory issues as well as legislative ones, and we manage issues for our clients at the local, state, federal, and international levels of government. Our clients consist of corporations, trade associations, coalitions, and non-profit organizations. While most DCI Group employees have campaign experience, the firm does not do work for candidates or party committees, though we do manage ballot measure campaigns. Here are some brief highlights from our history:
