Group Discussion: Advocacy Trip Effectiveness and Opportunities
Moderator: John Mirau
Our meeting on January 23 will be dedicated to a member-only group discussion on “Advocacy Trip Effectiveness and Opportunities,” as we begin to prepare for our Sacramento trip on March 12-13 and our Washington, D.C. trip on May 20-23. Please give some thought to our efforts and come prepared to contribute to the discussion. We need your input!
- How effective have our meetings and advocacy trips been? What are some suggestions for improving our efforts?
- Are we meeting with those who can really impact our issues and able to make things happen? What can we do differently?
- How can we leverage the personal contacts of our Inland Action membership?
- How can we better utilize the lobbying professionals who are working on behalf of our member organizations?
- Are there ways to better organize our trips, presentations, meeting schedules?
- How beneficial are our evening events?
