GGA Statewide Call: Leveraging Your Influence: Engaging in Public Policy

Grantmakers are frequently called on to take action and to use their influence to effect long-term change through advocacy efforts. But what does this mean? How can grantmakers abide by regulations and engage in the public policy process at the federal, state and local levels? In the first of a series of GGA webinars, industry subject matter experts will provide strategies and tactics to use to foster better understanding and direct connections between grantmakers, policymakers and communities. Then, grantmakers from across the state will share their experiences implementing these strategies and tactics. Whether you are a grantmaker already actively involved in funding advocacy work or a grantmaker who is interested in learning more, you will walk away from this webinar with practical information, case studies and new approaches to consider.
