An ICCT Webinar From the Interfaith Climate Advocates Network (ICAN)
Wednesday, March 25, 6:00-7:00pm
In this ICCT Webinar, Preparing to Meet With Our Elected Representatives, Susannah Tuttle of the NC Council of Churches’ Eco-Justice Connection will review step-by-step guidance and sample scripts for scheduling an introductory meeting with our elected representatives. We will send out a Zoom link in advance of the webinar. Join us on Wednesday, March 25, 6:00-7:00pm.
If you’re curious to learn more about this topic, you’re welcome to join this conversation with Susannah, whether or not you’re planning to be a part of the Advocating With Compassion Campaign.
What is the Advocating With Compassion Campaign and what is the Interfaith Climate Advocates Network (ICAN)?
ICCT’s Advocacy Team is organizing a North Carolina network of advocates by voting districts called Interfaith Climate Advocates Network (ICAN). We will introduce you to 3-5 people in your districts to meet with your North Carolina
elected representatives. To support the advocates, we’re also offering training designed to equip people of diverse faith traditions and spiritual backgrounds with the tools, confidence, and spiritual grounding needed to engage thoughtfully and effectively with elected officials. Together, we will advocate for the care of creation and for a fair, affordable energy system that serves all communities. A number of the groups are already formed and others are invited to join. You’re welcome to sign up to learn more or join a group here.
You may also want to watch our first Advocating With Compassion webinar with Susannah Tuttle held on January 13. That recording is available here. This webinar provided training for those who are new or already engaged with advocacy work. It included information about the NC General Assembly and how it operates as well as how to start building relationships with our representatives.
