Federal Advocacy 101

Federal Advocacy 101 will teach you how to use your voice to influence policy. This three part series will teach nonprofit staff and other advocates how to push back against harmful policy proposals and advocate for systems change that can benefit their clients or communities. 

Decision makers must hear from the experts, and that includes you! Policy advocacy doesn’t need to feel scary or overwhelming! This training will demystify the process and give you the tools needed to have the greatest impact on the lives of our neighbors. 

Participants will learn:

• How the lawmaking process happens at the federal level.
• How and when the federal lawmaking process is most easily influenced.
• How to have a successful advocacy meeting with a lawmaker and use a media strategy to get extra attention to the issues they care about.

Participants are encouraged to attend all three sessions, as each will build on the others. If you are not able to attend all three, please go ahead and register, and you will receive recordings of the sessions after they are completed.

• Tuesday, June 24th, 12:00-1:00 p.m.
• Wednesday, June 25th, 12:00-1:00 p.m.
• Thursday, June 26th, 12:00-1:00 p.m.
