Standing up good public policy is a year-round job in West Virginia. That’s why WV Rivers is inviting you to join us to learn about effective advocacy. Advocating for the issues you care about doesn’t have to be intimidating! In fact, your legislators want to hear from you – you are a voter.

Did you know you can meet with your legislators outside of the 60-day legislative session and that you can meet with them locally? During this advocate training, we’ll teach you how to call or set up a meeting with your legislators – you do NOT have to go to Charleston – and we’ll help you know what to say when you meet with them or their staff.

Have you watched the webinar? Fill out this form and we’ll follow-up to help you prepare for a meeting with your legislators!
