Reminder: Join Us for Public Affairs Council Meeting This Thurs., Feb. 13th!
(Feb. 10, 2025) Members are reminded that LeadingAge NY will be hosting our February Public Affairs Council meeting this Thurs., Feb. 13th at 3 p.m. During this month’s meeting, the Council will review the latest budget advocacy resources and social media/press activities. We plan to share highlights of our 2025 Advocacy Day that took place on Feb. 4th, discuss immediate next steps, and update members on messaging changes in light of the Executive Budget Proposal. The goal of this meeting will be to ensure that we are doing everything we can to attract and maintain the support of all state legislators.
With one-house budget proposals anticipated sometime in early March, this month is absolutely critical to the success of our budget advocacy. We must ensure that we are reaching as many state legislators as possible and encouraging them to make our state budget priorities their priorities. We are looking forward to this month's meeting and hope that you can join us!
The Public Affairs Council serves as a venue for Public Relations (PR) and Government Affairs professionals from LeadingAge NY member organizations to join together and coordinate advocacy and press efforts. It offers a prime opportunity for members to weigh in on our materials and strategies, and we use your feedback to refine and capitalize on our work together. While discussions primarily focus on advocacy and press, any staff member from any LeadingAge NY member organization who is interested in advocacy is welcome to join this council.
If you have not already done so, you can sign up for the Public Affairs Council here!
All Public Affairs Council meetings are held over Zoom. Please reach out to Sarah Daly at sdaly@leadingageny.org with any questions about the Council or PR/advocacy resources.
