Policy Advocacy Project: Proposal to advocate for the legislation you selected.
Use the information in the Policy Advocacy Project Assignment Reference document found in Canvas to help
with this assignment. Make sure to complete all the requirements specified in this assignment and the
assignment rubric.
The Meeting
• Meet with the elected official or staff member to discuss the legislation.
• Do not mention that you are a student or that you have arranged this visit as part of a course requirement.
The Report
Write a report of your visit and include all the items listed below.
1. Include the exact name of the elected official or staff member whose office you visited and the person
with whom you spoke.
2. Indicate whether the elected official or staff member was familiar with the legislation.
3. Describe how you conveyed your issue in the meeting. Summarize the topic and how you presented the
topic, including what facts or supporting information that you provided. Once you lay out the issue, you
should ask for the legislator’s support.
4. Summarize the elected official’s or staff member ‘s response to the your request; namely, will the
legislator provide the requested support or not? If not, why not? If the individual can support your
position, you should elaborate why he or she was so enthusiastic about showing support (so that we
might convey that enthusiasm to other less enlightened legislators).
5. Describe how the meeting ended. Was there additional information that you needed to send the elected
official or staff member?
6. Summarize the elected official’s or staff member’s demeanor. Was he or she cordial, merely civil, barely
engaged, etc.? In other words, despite your anxiety about the meeting (which is common for most nurses),
did the individual seem agreeable to having the discussion? For example, did he or she:
• Seem interested in the topic?
• Ask good questions?
• Seem candid about their position or remain noncommittal?
• Seem pleasant, easy to talk to versus merely civil versus confrontational?
• Relate any experiences that contributed to his or her understanding about the topic (e.g., has a
family member in one of the health professions or some other relevant personal experience). If so,
did these experiences help the individual to support your request or did it have the opposite effect?
7. Present information in a scholarly manner including skillful and proficient writing using appropriate
spelling, grammar, punctuation and mechanics, and APA style and formatting of the title page, appropriate
in-text reference citations, and reference page.
8. No more than 2-3 double spaced pages (NOT including the title page, references, and thank you e-mail).
9. Thank-you email – Send a thank-you email that briefly summarizes the bill number and the issue
discussed at the meeting. The letter must be written in a professional manner, including your full contact
