Learn to Lobby Congress for Peace: Advocacy Training with the Friends Committee on National Legislation


In this interactive workshop (in-person and virtual options to attend) participants will learn how to advocate more effectively for federal legislation related to peace and diplomacy in U.S. foreign policy. Led by staff from the Friends Committee on National Legislation, the Quaker peace lobby on Capitol Hill, this session will equip advocates with the basic skills to drive change in Congress, the knowledge to influence Delaware’s federal legislators, and the support to take this work forward as part of a national network of grassroots advocates. FCNL advocates on a range of issues related to peacebuilding in both foreign and domestic policy, from ending U.S. support for the war in Yemen and a return to the Iran nuclear deal, to funding violence interrupter programs and reducing gun violence in the United States. Join us (in-person in Wilmington or virtually from anywhere in the State) to meet our staff, learn new skills, and take action for lasting policy change with other members of your community.
