Boots on the Ground Roundtable Meeting

Learn more here.

Date: Friday, March 22nd, 2024

Time: 11:00am-12:00pm

Mode: Zoom

Topic: Speak Up, Speak Out: Testimony 101

Speakers: Kevin Kiprovski, Director of Public Policy, LiveOn NY

Description: Make your voices heard in the halls of power: Testimony is a key advocacy tool that brings your voice directly to elected officials. Too often testimony is done by policy folks who are levels removed from the work they are talking about. The most powerful testimony always comes from you, the people, who see the needs every day and are the solutions to so many of the issues our city faces. 

Join our March Boots on the Ground Roundtable to learn more about the City budget, how the services it funds impacts us as we age, and how you can get involved in LiveOn’s advocacy work in the coming months — including public testimony!
