September 12, 9:00 AM - 3:30 PM, WLS: Advocacy Learning Lab
There is a common misconception that 501c3 nonprofit organizations cannot engage in legislative lobbying or advocacy activities. This is not true. In fact, federal and state laws allow for these critical activities. Every nonprofit should know their rights and understand how to lobby and advocate to most fully achieve their missions and advance needed change.
