Awakening the Sleeping Giant
The coming decade will offer one of the greatest aggregations of challenges
to poor and working families in modern history. Gaps have widened in income,
achievement, life-long earnings, primary and secondary education, and family
net worth and assets. The situation is made more grim in Colorado by
continued cuts to services that provide the safety net for low-income and
working families.
In this climate, the goal of building a powerful civic voice for
disenfranchised constituencies and the nonprofits that support them takes on
urgent importance. Nonprofit direct service providers can have a crucial
voice in public policy campaigns, in particular on anti-poverty and state
budget reform issues.
This interactive session will engage participants in a discussion of:
Nonprofit Advocacy – What is advocacy and why does it matter to human
service providers?
Successful Components of Advocacy - Overview of the full cycle of
client-centered advocacy.
Opportunities & Resources – How to get started in 2013/2014 and connections
to resources, partners and support.
Presenter: Rebecca Gorrell
Ms. Gorrell is the Program Director at the Colorado Participation Project
(CPP), which provides guidance, training and support to human service
nonprofits in their nonpartisan advocacy and civic engagement efforts. She
brings 12 years of nonprofit management, development, and volunteer
experience at organizations throughout Colorado, including Regis University
and Seniors' Resource Center. Rebecca's areas of expertise include
special events, program management, volunteer coordination, nonprofit
marketing and business development. Rebecca has been involved in diverse
campaign and electoral efforts in Denver as a poll worker, poll watcher, and
canvasser.
The mission of the Colorado Participation Project (CPP) is to guide, train,
and support human service nonprofits in their nonpartisan advocacy and civic
engagement efforts. Since its founding, CPP has grown into a network of 34
service providers statewide who together serve nearly one million low-income
Coloradoans. CPP regularly convenes and connects direct service provider
organizations to coordinate civic participation and grassroots advocacy
efforts, and has gained a national reputation as a trusted and leading
resource for nonpartisan civic engagement and advocacy information.
Kind regards, John
