Educate to Advocate Virtual Public Policy Workshop

Online - Register for Zoom link

Whatever our perspective – trainees and students, researchers, health care professionals, service providers, educators, individuals with disabilities or family members, or simply concerned citizens – we see ways that the disability service system can be improved. One dimension of changing service systems is educating legislators and other public policy makers.

Co-hosted by the Vanderbilt Kennedy Center's Megan Hart and Courtney Taylor, this year's Educate to Advocate will feature policy expertise of representatives from the VKC, the Tennessee Developmental Disabilities Council, The Arc Tennessee, Tennessee Disability Coalition, and Disability Rights Tennessee. Details will be added as they are solidified.

Have a disability public policy question you'd like to have answered during Educate to Advocate? There will be a Q&A chat box to ask questions in real time during the live workshop.

Educate to Advocate will be livestramed over Zoom. Registration is required to receive the Zoom link.
