Storytelling for Action: Talking with Policymakers (Part 2)
- Length: 1 hour
- Date: April 5, 2014
Part 2 of a 2-part series on nonprofit advocacy.
Nonprofits move forward a mission within a context of a bigger cause, a broader policy environment, and a deeper set of individuals who could help if the right relationships were in place. Legislators, their staff, and other people of influence have the potential to unlock funding or guide policy if they were to better understand the stories of nonprofits and the people with whom those organizations work.
