On behalf of which United Way policy priorities will I be advocating?
The main purpose of Thursday, March 18th’s activities is threefold: 1.) provide local and state United Way staff and volunteers the opportunity to meet and share their impact work with Members of Congress; 2.) provide conference attendees with the skills and enthusiasm to advocate at the state and local level on behalf of United Way priorities; and 3.) provide system-wide visibility on Capitol Hill and before the US Congress. There will likely be a system-wide policy-related ask of legislators; however, that will be determined closer to the date of the event, based on the policy environment in Washington, DC.
