State legislators often talk about the Sacramento bubble and how they appreciate hearing directly from their constituents about the most important issues facing the communities they represent. That’s one reason the most effective, time-tested, advocacy tool is telling your story. The ability to tell your housing story is a skill you can utilize in all of your advocacy, whether advocating for housing in Sacramento or in your local community.
To help you to become an effective story teller for this year’s YIMBY Lobby Day and beyond, YIMBY Action and California YIMBY are joining forces to train you with the tools you need to tell your Housing Story effectively in a wide variety of situations. This training isn’t just for Lobby Day attendees — its open to everyone. Though we hope you use it alongside YIMBYs across the state in Sacramento for YIMBY Lobby Day on April 8th! (Haven’t signed up yet? There’s still time to RSVP for Lobby Day!)
