Networking and Advocating for Special Districts

The Special District Strategies mission is simple: to unite, advance, and strengthen special districts through networking, education, and advocacy.


SDS is focused on strengthening special districts' ability to provide reliable critical infrastructure, life point, and essential services in their communities. We focus on building bridges for our special district clients, crafting and executing strategies for intergovernmental success, and positioning special districts to advance broader strategic and capital goals. 


Our team leans in to serve America's most local of local governments - regardless of their type of service. We enjoy meeting districts where they are to help them navigate a complex governance and public affairs landscape. 


We'd love to connect - inquire for a free consultation at cole@karradvocacy.com.

Special Districts & Local Government Experience

Special Districts & Local Government Experience

Cole Karr founded Karr Advocacy Strategies in June 2022 (restructured as Special District Strategies, L.L.C. in 2025) after nearly four years working with California Special Districts Association. During this time, Cole assisted with the development of the National Special Districts Coalition's federal advocacy program and is a co-founder of the American Association of Special Districts. Through this in-depth experience, Cole understands how the "most local of local governments" operate, how to convey their issues, and how to effectively engage.
