SPN understands that effective engagement with government and policymakers is crucial for organizations seeking to shape public policy, advocate for their causes, and drive systemic change. We seek to equip Network professionals with the knowledge, strategies, and tools needed to navigate the complex landscape of government affairs successfully. Currently, offerings in the area of government affairs are limited to a senior leaders network. This group seeks to help members develop the expertise to engage with policymakers, build coalitions, and influence policy decisions. If you’d like to join us as we empower Network staff to be effective agents of change and make a meaningful impact on the issues that matter most to our communities, please contact Christie Herrera for more information.

Issue Campaign GuideNearly every successful policy campaign is hard fought, and no two campaigns or states are the same. But regardless of the state you’re working in, there are certain components that make up a winning campaign to educate the public and lawmakers. This sample plan covers those key components and offers specific suggestions for how to make your issue campaign as successful as possible.
