Join us on November 12 at 9 AM
With the midterm elections behind us, now is a crucial time for us nonprofit leaders to consider what comes next. We cannot squander this opportunity for change.
How do we effectively engage with our newly elected and returning representatives on both sides of the political spectrum? How can we ensure that the voices of the communities we serve are heard, and hold our representatives accountable for the commitments they make?
Let's brainstorm how we can move beyond election engagement to sustained, effective bipartisan civic participation over the next two years.
-
How do we establish direct, real, two-way lines of communication with elected officials and their staff?
-
How do we make our voices heard and get our expertise listened to and sought out?
-
How do we monitor campaign promises, promised legislative actions, and policy decisions that affect our missions?
-
What are practical, viable ways to follow up, demand answers, measure progress, and maintain an ongoing dialogue with officials on both sides of the political aisle?
-
Are there things we can do together as a collective group of community leaders?
-
