Registration for Appointments is CLOSED. You may still register for Lobby
Day and attend, but we cannot guaranty specific appointments with your
elected officials. Become a constituent lobbyist!
Join dozens of like-minded people for a day of lobbying Congress. The day
begins with Advocacy Training so that everyone knows the issues and knows
the talking points.
Next, we will work in small teams, meeting
with elected officials and their staff during morning and afternoon
appointments. No one will lobby alone! Lobby teams will arrive on time for
each appointment, deliver a packet of eating disorders materials, and talk
about the importance of appropriate public policy. Most importantly, each
team member can briefly share how an eating disorder has changed her or
his life.
Each Lobby Day participant will
receive an EDC lapel pin, lobby day packet.
You MUST register
in advance for this event, otherwise we will not be able to make
appointments for you! Details will be sent
to those who have registered for Lobby Day. You will receive the location
and other necessary information.
Register now for
Lobby Day.
