Upcoming Trainings Offered by DASH - Advocacy Workshops to Help Disability Advocacy Groups Improve Their Skills
Advocating with Technology
10am 12pm
With the advancement of technology, advocacy groups need to learn to use all the tools available to advance their message. Learn how to utilize and navigate the internet effectively for outreach, organizing, and advocacy.
Lunch 12pm 1pm
Lunch will be made available and is a great time to network with your peers and other advocates.
Advocacy with the Media 1pm 3pm
Most people get their information from the news media-newspapers, television and radio. Successful advocacy groups know how to use the media to deliver their message to their communities and to policy makers. We plan to have members of the media help workshop participants understand how they can get their message out.
