Please be patient - thanks!)
Legislative advocacy is a year-round
effort. For individuals with developmental disabilities and
families, it lasts a lifetime.
Use the information in this booklet to take simple steps to
successful advocacy.
The best way to learn
about advocacy is through experience. The Arc of Washington State offers
opportunities
for beginners as well as old time policy wonks who just can't get enough. We
love what we do, and we want to share our knowledge and passion with anyone
who's interested (or who has the potential to
be interested).
