2021 Virtual Advocacy Toolkit

Back to Resources

2021 Virtual Advocacy Toolkit
There are several ways you can connect with your policymakers to advocate for our collective policy agenda and ensure positive policies for youth become law. The purpose of this toolkit is to help you do three things:
  1. Build a new or strengthen an existing relationship with your Members of Congress and their staff;
  2. Educate Members of Congress and their staff about the local needs and national solutions regarding youth and young adult homelessness and human trafficking;
  3. Ask Members of Congress and their staff to do at least one thing that would advance a stronger national and local response to the prevention of or response to YYA homelessness and trafficking.
