About this Event

Where: Zoom

No Cost to Attend: All materials are provided.

Advocacy: Never thought of yourself as an advocate? Want to

make a positive change in mental health services?

Grassroots advocacy is simple; you don’t have to know

about policies or politics. It’s about using your voice to

influence policy makers and make a difference.

Turn your passion and your lived experience into a

positive voice for mental health with the NAMI Smarts

for Advocacy.

Make your voice heard. NAMI Smarts for Advocacy

will enhance your advocacy skills and help you shape

a powerful and personal story that will move policy

makers.

The NAMI Smarts Difference

NAMI Smarts for Advocacy engages you in hands-on

learning to build and strengthen skills.

Whether you are new to advocacy or have years of

experience you will leave the training with messages,

step-by-step tools and the practice you need to feel

informed, confident and ready to make a difference.

Module 1: Telling Your Story

Real stories are the most potent motivator for

legislators. Telling Your Story guides you through

writing and delivering a concise and compelling

version of your story that will serve as the

springboard for your advocacy.

Module 2: Emails and Phone Calls

Don’t think your emails and phone calls are making

an impact? Emails and Phone Calls shows you how to

write emails that get attention and make phone calls

that policy makers remember.

Module 3: Meeting Your Legislator

Want your meetings with policy makers to deliver

results? Meeting Your Legislator demonstrates how to

orchestrate a successful dialogue with elected

officials.

Module 4: Medic*tion: Protecting Choice
