Are you a health center board member interested in learning more about how you can become a champion for your organization? According to BoardSource, "successful advocacy does not require stepping into the quagmire of partisan politics. It simply means using our voices as committed and informed champions for our missions. Speaking the truth in a calm but unwavering voice. Reminding decision-makers of our shared values and beliefs. Sharing tested solutions to community problems. Helping community leaders understand the impact of their decisions." In this session, participants will learn how to tell their health center's story effectively, discuss CHC issues and priorities with different audiences, and become an advocacy champion within their organization.
