Policy and advocacy work with government and elected officials can be a way to amplify the voices of those most affected by strategies like community schools, and empower them to tell their story to the decision-makers and “holders of purse strings.” It can also be an effective way to grow and increase public funding streams for community schools in your state or community. Join this session to learn how to be an advocate for community schools, and how to do so in a way that actively engages the voices of students, families, and staff with all levels of government officials.
