Event Details

This event is hosted in partnership with Maine Philanthropy Center.

What happens in between Election Day and the start of the next legislative session? STRATEGY.

Join us on Friday, December 13th in Augusta to come together with nonprofit organizations, funders, and government officials to think about how nonprofits can impact policy in the 132nd legislative session.

The purpose of this workshop is to:

  • give nonprofit advocates a chance to network and connect
  • convene thoughtful discussions about advocacy prior to the 132nd Legislative Session
  • give funders a chance to hear about where resources are most needed related to key subectors

Participants will leave the session:

  • With stronger connections to other nonprofit advocates within their mission area and across the network
  • More informed post-election for what the 132nd session will look like and what the key issues are likely to be
  • Feeling energized for their own advocacy path and work leading into session
  • More aware of MANP / MPC's advocacy and policy goals

Intended Audience

  • Advocacy staff at nonprofit organizations, or staff members who work on advocacy and policy
  • Funders interested in learning more about critical needs across subsectors
  • Government officials and staff interested in collaborating within the nonprofit sector
