Strategic Communications Team of the Year and Public Affairs Firm of the Year

ROKK won the Reed Award for Strategic Communications Team of the Year in 2025, and we’re proud to have the opportunity to repeat in 2026. ROKK is also a finalist for Public Affairs Firm of the Year. We have continued to grow our client roster of industry leaders and strengthen our team of battle-tested strategists over the past 12 months, in addition to opening our new K Street office that will help position the firm for even more growth and further enhance the capabilities and solutions we provide to our clients.

As a bipartisan, full-service firm staffed with in-house public affairs experts, creators, digital specialists and former journalists, we helped our clients impact their communications goals throughout 2025, and are honored to be recognized as an industry leader.

Americans for Clean Aviation Fuels: Public Affairs Campaign of the Year

ROKK’s engagement with Americans for Clean Aviation Fuels (ACAF) is a finalist for the Public Affairs Campaign of the Year Reed Award. Our team planned, activated and optimized a surround-sound public affairs campaign to generate lawmaker support to extend and enhance the Clean Fuel Production Tax Credit on behalf of ACAF. 

The results speak for themselves: ROKK’S work with ACAF helped secure lawmaker support for the extension of the Clean Fuel Production Tax Credit in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

BRIDGE Coalition: Advocacy Campaign of the Year

ROKK’s engagement with the BRIDGE Coalition is a full-service coalition program, beginning with branding and website through ongoing strategic communications, paid media and creative services. With the website as a strategic, centralized hub for engaging, educating and mobilizing key audiences–including lawmakers, educators, parents and students–we share high-impact stories, data and policy updates to champion course materials that are grounded in science, powered by technology and drive better outcomes in higher education and the workforce.

Shortlisted for Advocacy Campaign of the Year, the coalition and surround-sound messaging and activation plan leveraging paid, earned, shared and owned tactics has built awareness around the coalitions’ members’ shared policy priorities, establishing them as a trusted thought leader and resource among higher education stakeholders.

Winners will be announced at the Reed Awards & Conference in Charleston, SC on March 12th and 13th.
