Messaging is one strategy to advance efforts toward broader systemic change. A common frame and shared language can help unify different organizations with similar goals and amplify attention on overarching issues in a way that engages decisionmakers to work with you. This webinar will share strategic messaging Iowa ACEs 360 has been testing, what communications strategies have been effective for advocacy, and what we've learned in the process. We'll then discuss how this messaging resonates with you and how you could apply it to your work in your coalition or community, whether or not you plan to engage directly in advocacy efforts.
