From informed conversations with neighbors to writing a legislator or attending a public forum, we encourage respectful actions that engage and inspire effective laws and policies. Join us and advocate for a health, education or financial stability issue that you are passionate about.
Our Role in Advocacy
As a community convener and collaborator, United Way of Treasure Valley strives to stay informed about the way legislative decisions will impact the way we and our partners affect the hard-working populations we serve. It’s an ongoing education process.
United Way of Treasure Valley also has a responsibility to share our comprehensive data ― as well as the results of our various communitywide projects ― with lawmakers and leaders.
