As a social worker, you recognize the urgent need for action to improve compensation, ensure access to social work services, and address skyrocketing educational loan debt. Congress plays a crucial role in addressing these workforce issues.
Join your colleagues preceding the conference for an Advocacy Day on Capitol Hill when you can meet with your congressional lawmakers and/or their staff and let them know the urgent need for their support. We cannot move our legislative agenda without your personal outreach. Lawmakers need to hear directly from constituents in their states and districts.
NASW will arrange all your appointments, provide transportation to Capitol Hill, train you on advocacy strategies, thoroughly brief you in advance, and provide all materials. We may also accompany you on your visits.
At your meetings with lawmakers and their staff, you will have the opportunity to tell your story about the crucial role of social workers in your community and in your setting.
Advance registration is required.
