Partners in Advocacy
As a non-profit organization, grassroots advocacy is an important part of Opportunity Partners’ mission, seeking to influence outcomes that directly affect the lives of the people we serve. Grassroots advocacy increases our capacity to build influence and create change in Minnesota’s public policy. These efforts bring together many people who share the same cause and who work for that cause from the ground up, creating a groundswell of voices.
Grassroots advocacy happens at the Capitol with our legislators, in the community with our friends and neighbors, and in the workplace as we advocate for the rights of people with disabilities.
Advocacy Activities
Grassroots advocacy, by its very nature, is something that is continuous. With 2010 being an election year, there are some great opportunities to advocate to your legislators while they are out of session and in your community.
