Advocacy Summer Camp

Come Join Texas Impact for Advocacy Summer Camp!

What makes for a good meeting with a legislator or their staff?
How can the average Texas voter develop relationships with their elected representatives?
Can I take my soda in the committee room when I come to a legislative hearing?

The legislative process can be overwhelming—but we’re out to demystify it!

On August 18, Texas Impact will host the last session of its Advocacy Summer Camp at the Capitol.  Advocacy Summer Camp is a series of short, informative briefings designed to build your effectiveness as a citizen leader.  By attending Advocacy Summer Camp, you will have the rare opportunity to visit with Austin lobbyists, legislative staffers, and legislators in a relaxed and open setting.
