To collaborate with state agencies and other state/regional/national associations to provide advocacy opportunities for financial aid programs. To be a subject matter expert for legislatures. To encourage discussion and provide tools that will enable members to be engaged in the legislative process. To be a subject matter expert in legislative issues for staff ILASFAA Annual Conference 2
3 Why does Advocacy Matter? The majority of student aid is the product of (or is impacted by) the political environment. National politics State politics Institutional politics Understanding these basic concepts will help you anticipate change and possibly influence the process Cultivate relationships before they are needed! 2019 ILASFAA Annual Conference 3
4 Mobilizing the Grassroots... Build, Organize, Implement: All politics are local Elected officials are focused on their constituents What elected officials do or don t do is often a function of who has their attention ILASFAA Annual Conference 4
5 TAKING ACTION... Identify the issue(s): Why is it important? Who is affected by it? Identify the influencers: Who can help make changes?
