The Local Advocacy Training Series helps advocates working at the city council or county commission level move meaningful policy change, in as little as three days.
"I cannot overstate how valuable the Advocacy Training Series was for me. It provided me with a comprehensive set of skills and knowledge to lead policy campaigns for my organization. The training was structured in such a way that it covered all the essential aspects of advocacy, including policy analysis, stakeholder engagement, coalition building, and effective communication."
“As a new organizer working in the immigrant rights movement, the Advocacy Training Series allowed me to view my role in a larger context that extends into the dynamics of the legislature. I now recognize the ways in which we organize legislators and secure votes is a core element towards successfully changing the political landscape from one that gatekeeps policy work to one that is rooted in community.”
"The Advocacy Training Series is essential for anyone wanting to understand the state policy landscape. Advocacy Rising creates a welcoming, informative, and focused environment to equip & empower passionate people with the tools they need to navigate the legislative process. It truly makes the cryptic, inaccessible elements of advocacy approachable."
