Get ready to dive into the world of advocacy and learn the ropes from the pros - Advocacy 101 is your ticket to making a difference!
Advocacy shouldn’t be reserved for policy insiders, lobbyists, or people with “advocacy” in their job title. Advocacy 101 is a free, practical introduction designed for nonprofit professionals and community leaders who already care deeply about their communities and are ready to move from understanding advocacy to actually doing it.
For people with full workloads and real-world responsibilities, this virtual webinar cuts through jargon and theory to focus on clear, actionable steps you can take to influence change. If you’re tired of endless meetings and ready to take meaningful action beyond your 9–5, this webinar is for you.
What You’ll Gain
By the end of this session, you will be able to:
- Understand what advocacy is (and what it isn’t).
- Identify key decision-makers, power holders, and influencers in your issue area.
- Develop clear, compelling advocacy goals and messages.
- Use practical strategies to communicate with policymakers or the public
