AllAI Advocacy
There is no instruction manual for transitioning your technical expertise into local advocacy. So we’re learning as we go. We started with 1-3 minute public comments at local meetings and slowly built up credibility. Now we’re being invited to share our expertise in presentations to local government bodies. This page shows moments in our journey. We are hopeful that you can learn from us, start your journey, and share it so that we can also learn from you.
