Take Action

Virtual Advocacy Days 2020

Be Heard, Take Action, End Violence

The National Network to End Domestic Violence (NNEDV) hosted our annual Advocacy Day virtually June 9-10, 2020. 

We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to advance the collective agenda of domestic violence leadership from across the United States with the help of technology.

Registration

Advocacy Days 2020 is free to attend! We welcomed the participation of as many state and territory coalition members as possible.

While we missed seeing you in D.C., we were excited to bring Advocacy Days directly to you, virtually. We encouraged new staff and first-time participants to attend, along with those of you who join us each year in DC. In particular, we encouraged you to reach out to culturally specific programs in your state or territory and invite them to attend.

Registration is now closed. Please contact Advocacy@NNEDV.org with any questions.
