Abstract Description :






Join the superheroes of the Digital Learning Policy Protectors (DLPP) to recap what was in the previous session and illuminate what we think is coming in 2025 --you know after this crazy election, there are two very different pathways to create strategy around! We’ll first discuss the policy issues rising up during the 2023 state legislative sessions and highlight some of the early and emerging trends. After we know our advocacy needs, we will spend the second half of the session on communication and advocacy techniques. Attendees will have time to craft a 3-minute pitch to policymakers on what they desire to share. Think of it as advocacy boot camp and one you won't want to miss to help impact change! DLPP ACTIVATE!
