Advocacy Communications for the 89th Texas Legislative Session

Whether your organization has decades of experience advocating your issues at the Texas Capitol or if 2025 will be your first time to enter the pink dome, it’s essential to take a fresh approach each session to tell the story of your organization and the individuals you serve. Can we challenge ourselves to move from communicating at to building community with? This 2-hour interactive webinar will offer strategic guidance and tactical tools, as well as an opportunity for questions and networking.

Nonprofit Austin reserves the right to postpone this opportunity if there is not adequate registration.
