With the Delaware legislative session coming to a close on June 30, 2026, now is the time to make your voice heard.

Join us for weekly interactive advocacy training and action opportunities for you to build the skills, confidence and experience to engage directly with lawmakers during the final weeks of session.

Participants will receive a refresher on how to communicate with elected officials and will have the opportunity to put their skills into practice by participating in committee hearings and meeting directly with legislators to advocate on key issues and legislation.

These weekly sessions are designed to be flexible. Attend one session or join us every week, you are welcome to take part in as many sessions as your schedule allows. Whether you’re new to advocacy or looking to strengthen your skills, these events will provide hands-on experience and support every step of the way.

Join us to learn, take action, and advocate for the issues that matter most before the legislative session ends on June 30. No prior advocacy experience is required—just a willingness to make your voice heard!
