Join our Advocacy Professional Engagement Group on January 18th from 6:30-8:00 p.m. for Advocacy Training with John Wilson, Kansas Action for Children. Register on I-PoWeR.
Here is a brief summary of what he will be discussing: Shaping policy and influencing ideas in the Capitol can often feel intimidating or like something reserved for “political” people. The reality is that policy can be shaped by anyone - but the only way that decision-makers in Iowa will start supporting ideas that improve your life, strengthen your profession, and help families is when they hear from YOU. During this discussion-based workshop, you will be introduced to practical skills for engaging with elected officials and policy-makers. You will leave this training feeling more confident about using your voice and leveraging your experience to strengthen early care and education in Iowa.
A speaker on an advocacy zoom once said “the biggest failing in our field? Not bringing more voices together!” Learn how to make change in child care possible. See you there.
