Our Trainer: Jeff Willard
Jeff Willard is an experienced leader in the Reform Jewish advocacy group Tzedek. Tzedek means justice in Hebrew. Jeff has taught this advocacy workshop to many organizations such as the ACLU, Fair Districts Georgia, Indivisible Georgia Coalition, Sierra Club, Spelman College's Social Justice Program to name only a few. We are most fortunate to have his expertise.
Training Objective:
This workshop will help each participant become familiar with and develop their existing advocacy skills around social justice legislation. Each will learn to create their own advocacy strategies to interact with all types of legislators, Conservative, Progressive or Moderate. We will practice our skills and leave with practical advice and abilities to achieve our advocacy objectives.
MTA attendees will be visiting our U.S. Representatives Wednesday, August 28th seeking their co-sponsorship of the “We the People” Amendment (H. J.Res. 48). All are welcome to joint us!
