Effective advocacy depends on more than passion—it requires clear, strategic communication. In this practical session, participants will learn how to engage elected officials and their staff through calls, letters, emails, and in-person conversations that make an impact. This course will help advocates craft concise, values-based messages, understand how legislative offices handle constituent outreach, and confidently navigate interactions with congressional staff and gatekeepers.
