POLICY

What are legislators currently doing to address your selected advocacy priorities for a vulnerable population? Are there current policies in place?

What might need to change? 

For this Discussion, you will identify a state or federal policy that aligns with your advocacy priority. After identifying the policy, you will consider how the policy aligns and supports your identified vulnerable population. How and why does this policy align with your advocacy priorities?
