New SCOPE Director of Marketing and Communications!

Dear SCOPE Members,

We are pleased to announce an important organizational enhancement designed to amplify our mission of protecting and restoring the Second Amendment (2A) rights of all New Yorkers.

Effective immediately, Stephen (Steve) Leonard has been appointed as our Director of Marketing

and Communications. In this role, Steve will lead our strategic marketing and communications efforts to engage, educate, and mobilize our members and 2A supporters across New York State.

To support this initiative, we are also forming an ad hoc Marketing Communications (MarCom) Team.

This volunteer-driven team will collaborate with Steve to enhance SCOPE’s visibility and outreach across multiple platforms.

Roles and Responsibilities:

  • Director of Marketing and Communications: Oversee and enhance our marketing and communications
  • MarCom Team Members: Develop content (articles, graphics, videos), manage social media channels, strategy, including media relations, social media, public messaging, newsletters, advertising, and branding aligned with SCOPE’s mission, support email campaigns, promote events, monitor public discourse on 2A issues, and contribute creative ideas to advance our educational and advocacy efforts.

Would you like to use your creative skills in support of 2A? Join us. We are actively seeking motivated volunteers

with skills in writing, graphic design, social media management, photography/video production, public relations, research, legal, or related areas.

Our goal is to build a creative and collaborative team that can help amplify pro-2A voices and expand our reach and membership across New York State. If you are passionate about defending our 2A rights and want to make a meaningful impact, we encourage you to join us. Please contact Steve Leonard at sleonard7@stny.rr.com with a brief summary of your background, relevant skills, and how you’d like to contribute.

This new structure reflects our commitment to building a more robust and specialized marketing and communications function while remaining member driven and sponsorship/membership funded.

These changes will help us grow our statewide network in support of electing leaders who will fiercely defend our constitutional rights.

On behalf of the SCOPE Board, please join me in welcoming Steve Leonard to our leadership team. We look forward to the energy and expertise he will bring to our defense of the Second Amendment.

In Liberty,
John Elwood,  
President, S.C.O.P.E. – Shooters Committee On Political Education
