Communicating with Elected Officials (Series Session 3)
New Workshop for 2025!
Advocacy is key for nonprofits, but influencing policy requires strategic communication. This workshop will equip nonprofit leaders with the skills to engage elected officials effectively. Join us to learn best practices for crafting persuasive messages and building relationships. We’ll cover how to structure advocacy campaigns, leverage data to support your cause, and engage officials through meetings and public testimony. We’ll also explore digital tools and social media strategies to amplify your message.
This workshop is part of the 2025 Advocacy Series.
Nonprofit organizations across Florida are providing vital services that benefit and strengthen our communities. But sometimes there are barriers that interfere with our mission work that can only be solved by changing policy or educating decision makers through advocacy and lobbying. This series from Florida Nonprofit Alliance will help you better understand what your nonprofit organization can legally engage in and how to do it in the most effective way possible.
This spring, advocacy experts will lead you through how to set advocacy goals from allowable activities, how to engage your Board and staff leadership in advocacy, how to communicate with elected officials, and the best ways to identify and work in coalitions to maximize your efforts.
The workshops are interactive and allow time for discussion and planning.
If you register for all four workshops, receive 25% off with the code ALLFOUR25. After registering for all four, you will receive a code for the bonus webinar.
