About the workshop

This event will introduce attendees to science policy advocacy, focusing on relevant congressional committees, federal agencies and White House offices. The workshop will cover the federal budget cycle and how science funding relates to overall discretionary funding. Attendees will identify relevant committees and congresspeople with whom to advocate and craft a message for those specific stakeholders. At the end of the informational section of the workshop, participants will have the opportunity to work in groups on planning advocacy action on a topic of interest to them. RSVP to bill@case.edu.
