This interactive virtual event, presented by Florida Nonprofit Alliance, is your chance to debrief the election and start making your advocacy plan for 2025! Our state and federal lobbying experts will share what happened in state and federal elections and what that means for nonprofits.

We'll also be joined by an elected official to share what the most effective advocacy messages include and how to update your talking points.

Then, we'll discuss local trends from November's elections, and what that means for the sector overall.

So join your nonprofit colleagues from across the state to discuss the 2024 elections, as well as network and build relationships. 

At this event, you will:

  • Discuss the results of state and federal elections and how they may affect nonprofits
  • Share local trends with attendees to find commonalities and potential solutions
  • Network with nonprofit organizations, consultants, and funders from across the state
  • Hear from advocacy experts and elected officials about upcoming priorities and messages that are effective 

Plus, get a preview of the first ever Day at the Capitol in early 2025.
