Description
Join us in Sacramento to support healthy food and physical activity environments in California and tell legislators that investing in health and safety now will benefit all Californians! ENACT Day is a day of learning and advocacy in the state capital, where community members and advocates from across the state come together to:
LEARN about how to advocate for legislation that supports healthy eating and physical activity
NETWORK with community leaders and advocates
MEET with your representatives
ENACT Day is a great opportunity for community members, grassroots organizers, and advocates to develop their policy advocacy skills. All you need to bring is your passion, and an optional donation to support the costs associated with the day or sponsor youth who otherwise would be unable to attend! Spanish interpretation, breakfast and lunch will be provided!
If you are unable to attend the event in person but would still like to participate, follow #ENACT2017 on social media or connect with our sponsors to learn about Virtual ENACT Day, where we will work with you to use your email, telephone and social media accounts to tell your story and get your message across. No matter where you are, we welcome you to join us!
