ADVOCACY FOR THE LONG HAUL FCNL Advocacy Teams Launch
Saturday, June 3, 1–4pm Northbrook United Methodist Church 1190 Western Ave, Northbrook, IL 60062 People across the country are asking the same question: “What can I do to change what’s happening in the world?” Our 75 years on Capitol Hill have shown that your voice can make an important impact on federal policy. In-person meetings with your members of Congress are the most effective way to influence policy decisions. Change in Washington starts with you. Please join FCNL for an advocacy workshop. Learn to: • Influence your members of Congress and their staff through face-toface conversations • Drive the media coverage you want to see • Build a strategic team in your community that lobbies as part of a powerful national advocacy network • Join our 2017 campaign: prevent increases in Pentagon spending that would come at a cost to our communities, health, and environment Learn More: fcnl.org/advocacyteams
