Attention advocates! On February 22, beginning at 1 p.m. Central Time (2 p.m. Eastern), we will hold a Zoom meeting to prepare for the United Way Virtual Hill Day on March 2.
On Wednesday, March 2, we will contact our legislators about our focus issues via email, mail, Zoom, Facetime, and phone, as well as educate them and the general public by sharing our message on social media. Of note, in-person visits to legislators are also welcomed and encouraged, but only if safe and possible.
Message content is being determined at this time. Advocates will also receive general information around logistics and social media, as well as tips for engaging their legislators.
In addition to materials housed on our resource page, we will be sharing language and templates you can customize and use for your communications with legislators, as well as social media messaging. We’ll also tell you about a social media contest exclusively for Afterschool programs in TN, where the top three programs will win $200 each.
Please RSVP to mary.graham@uwtn.org to ensure you receive all the materials you’ll need for the call on Tuesday, February 22 at
1 p.m. Central. You must email Mary in order to receive meeting credentials.
