Grassroots Update: Connect with Legislators Today!
The legislative process never stops. This election season, take an opportunity to connect your community with the people representing you in Olympia. As experts in your field, you are positioned to build powerful relations with dignitaries as they work to better understand quality long-term care. Your experience, residents, patients, and staff all have stories that will shape lawmakers’ perspective on skilled nursing and assisted living in Washington. Hopefully, it will influence policy decisions which uplift and protect your work at the same time.
As an advocate you are able to get involved through meaningful, approachable engagement, including:
- Facility Tours
- PAC Fundraising
- WHCA Committee Engagement
- Townhall Meetings
- Email/Phone Actions
Grassroots advocacy is a simple way to build a strong coalition of legislators in Olympia who care for, protect, and understand the long-term care continuum. As providers face challenges on both sides of care, now is the time to make the collective loud and call on lawmakers to stand up for Washington’s seniors.
By letting us know you’re interested in getting involved, WHCA commits to supporting you every step of the way. From tour logistics and planning to email drafting and phone call templates, we are pleased to make advocacy easy and accessible. Everyone has a story – but not everyone has time to tell it. Learn more about WHCA’s grassroots efforts by contacting Aidan Swayne today.
