Homelessness Advocacy 101 workshops

Turn your Passion into Action – Attend a Homelessness Advocacy 101 workshop

(Don’t be shy! Advocacy just means speaking up!)

Do you care about homelessness and want to do more, but need to know how to help?  Learn to speak up for smart policies & robust funding that will lead to a healthy & housed WA: more affordable housing, a stronger safety net, fair revenue, & supportive services.

Sign up online for one of our FUN and FREE workshops:

  • Wednesday, January 24, 5:30 p.m. at Seattle Pacific University in the Gazebo Room, Student Union
  • Sunday, January 28, 1:30  p.m. at Renton Highlands Library

Join us for “Advocacy 101,” a FUN training with Nancy Amidei. Together with local experts & allies, we’ll remind you of what you might have learned in 8th grade:

* Who makes decisions in Olympia?
* How does a bill become a law?
* What can regular people do to have a say?

We’ll share the basics of key legislative proposals to create housing, support people who are homeless, and make a better future for all. You’ll leave informed & inspired, with simple actions and sample messages to use with your classmates, fellow congregants, neighbors, and friends.   Learn to speak up effectively and make a real difference!

Please Pre-Register on-line!
