Shining a spotlight on injustice to bring about change
Ocean & Mountain is a Los Angeles-based consulting team dedicated to advancing social justice and progressive causes through strategic communications. Our name reflects our perspective: a sweeping and inclusive understanding of the ideas, people and power of Los Angeles and its influence on the world.
We have a proven track record
We have influenced public dialogue across civic projects, social movements and political leadership over two decades. Our networks reach across philanthropy, business, government, labor, media, education, healthcare, and community-based organizations.
We’re big-picture thinkers
We elevate the visibility of clients, their projects and their messages in a crowded media environment through communications strategy, media relations and digital media. We’ve generated local, national and global media coverage across Los Angeles, in Sacramento and on Capitol Hill.
We have a sophisticated grasp of policy, political strategy, organizing, and arts and culture.
We are tuned in to the local and national media environment, public opinion mindsets, internal and external organizational politics, and neighborhood sensitivities across a range of issues. We are practicing creative writers, musicians and digital artists.
We believe in community and solidarity
We want to shine a spotlight on injustice, create empathy and bring about change.
We know that change takes work from both inside and outside
Activists call for radical change, what’s possible. Government officials pursue bold strategies that were unimaginable only last month. Rarely does either succeed without the other, and we understand what both need to be effective. The one thing all our clients have in common is that they are leading transformation. We help them make it real.
Our clients are leading social change and systems change in 21st-century Los Angeles. They’re building racial equity, addressing the housing and homelessness crisis, taking on over-incarceration, improving public spaces, and protecting civil rights and worker rights.
