Hosted by Trout Unlimited and PennFuture
Join fellow advocates from the capital region for a morning of workshops, networking, and conversations about ways you can advocate for Pennsylvania's clean water heritage in your community.
Following the morning's training, we will be joined by members from the General Assembly to share their experiences and listen to your concerns about Pennsylvania's waterways.
Attendees can expect to discuss Pennsylvania's stream upgrade process, the Farm Bill, and other clean water legislation both at the state and federal level. Workshops will include print and digital media outreach, meetings with your legislator, and other advocacy tools used to get our message and mission in front of key decision makers.
Lunch is provided and admission is free.
