"Telling Your Story" Regional Workshops .3 ceu FREE
Description: Ensuring the community and decision makers such as city council know about efforts and the impact of parks and recreation programs is an important step in ensuring we have resources for tomorrow. Our elected officials need to know about the current activities and the related policies that need to be supported. Therefore, media advocacy is important because it helps to frame your message and shift the health debate from behavior modification/individual responsibility to policy change.
Participants will learn how to incorporate media advocacy into your local action plan by: § Discussing the meaning of media advocacy § Providing background tips for working with the media § Providing tools and resources for conducting effective local media advocacy activities. Each participant will receive a workbook and CD-rom with resource materials.
