WISCAP Virtual Roundtable – Local Government Advocacy with WISCAP Executive Director, Dr. Courtney Hayward 

March 18, 2025

Local government advocacy is a powerful tool for organizations seeking positive change within their communities. Whether you’re advocating for improved infrastructure, enhanced public services, or social justice initiatives, engaging with local government is a crucial step toward creating meaningful impact and the sustainability of services provided to the most vulnerable. This training will help agencies:
1. Examine the structure of local government and identify its key roles in shaping legislation to effectively navigate and engage in local policy-making.
2. Apply strategies for engaging with community leaders and policymakers to advocate for legislative changes that reflect Community Action agencies values and address community needs.
