This will be a virtual training held on zoom.
Nonprofits have an important role to play in shaping public policy by advocating to remove barriers for the people they serve. Policy change, even on a local level, can make a profound impact on our community. Join Joey, with KS Appleseed, to learn how to make systems and policy change in your community!
Participants will learn:
- how to make systems and policy change in our communities within the legal framework for lobbying.
- how to identify and build issue-based campaigns,
- strategic communication
- grassroots power building
- Additional information will include how non-profits can engage in lobbying to achieve "upstream" changes.
