About

OUR MISSION AND WORK

Masa Group's mission is to secure progressive, just, and bold policies at the state, local, and national levels on behalf of social justice organizations. Masa Group is a social entrepreneurship and as such, we only collaborate and service clients that support progressive views and policies. Our campaigns, government relations, lobbying, and related work are dedicated to enhancing the lives of and supporting our communities. As a social justice consulting firm, we provide an extra pair of hands for organizations seeking to bring about meaningful improvements to our nation’s policies. We offer services on a short-term, interim, and long-term basis. Masa Group’s previous and current collaborations include a variety of state, local, and national partners, including the ACLU, Catholic Legal Immigration Network, Inc. (CLINIC), CASA, American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA), NALEO Educational Fund, Immigrant Legal Resource Center (ILRC), Oxfam America, United We Dream, and others.

WHO WE ARE

Masa Group prioritizes diversity in hiring and especially welcomes women, LGBTQ+ folks, people of color, and immigrants—including DACA recipients. Our team consists of talented individuals with decades of immigration policy experience and of varied backgrounds, and we are led by a DACAmented, queer person of color.

At Masa Group, we prioritize work-life balance. We are fully remote and offer flex time and a shortened work week. We value and regularly implement input from employees on our policies and offer holistic benefits, including above-average PTO benefits, and paid holidays. We prioritize ourselves in a functional and balanced work environment where supervisors empower employees to make decisions and take leadership.

HISTORY OF MASA GROUP

Masa Group was founded in 2017 by Jose Magaña-Salgado. Before launching Masa Group, Jose worked with the MALDEF and ILRC in the nonprofit immigration advocacy space. His time working for nonprofits inspired him to create a social entrepreneurship combining the efficiencies of private sector consulting with the passion and desire for change found in nonprofits. To date, Masa Group has worked with more than 30 non-profit organizations as clients.
