This event is hosted by Positive Women’s Network.

Join PWN-USA for a policy advocacy training series launching this June! We will be hosting monthly trainings focused on policy advocacy skills-building. The trainings will range in topics from providing an overview on how government processes work to how you to organize effectively on your issue to key frameworks for advocacy.

We know that our members are brilliant and have lived expertise that should guide our strategies - ensuring policies will have better outcomes for those most directly impacted. Let’s build power and skill-build together!
