You’re Invited: June 13th, Women in Advocacy Workshop

Professional Women in Advocacy is hosting its 3rd Chicago Workshop, Thursday, June 13th. This year’s theme is Breakthrough Advocacy and will highlight new trends and technologies changing advocacy efforts and how increased youth and diversity in the civic arena are impacting how business gets done.  

You will learn from successful women in business, media and politics who will share their stories and approaches to effective advocacy.  Topics include exploring the latest tools which are transforming the way we advocate, including innovative approaches in traditional and new media to communicate with key policy makers and stakeholders.

Speakers include The Policy Circle’s Eva Pusateri, Director of Communications and State Leadership Councils, who will participate on a panel entitled “Diversity and Inclusion in Advocacy”.   She will discuss how the new face of politics is changing the way we advocate, as more people of diverse backgrounds are being elected to government.

Together, Professional Women in Advocacy and Women in Government are hosting a Welcome Reception on the preceding evening, June 12th, for networking with fellow attendees, speakers and members of both organizations. The Workshop will be Thursday, June 13th and offers a full day of panels and breakout sessions with time scheduled for more networking.
