Learn advocacy from the advocates!

We're a grassroots, peer-based mental health advocacy organization in Colorado that is dedicated to improving the lives of people with mental health conditions. Why? Well, because we have them too! That's what we mean by grassroots. We aren't policymakers or politicians, we're just people who want our voices to be heard. And we want yours to be heard too!

What you'll learn

During this free workshop, you'll learn about:

• The legislative process in Colorado
• Prominent issues in mental health advocacy
• Crafting testimony for legislative hearings
• How grassroots advocacy can make a difference

Who you're learning from

This workshop is co-hosted by Aubrey Boggs, Advocacy and Outreach Coordinator at the Colorado Mental Wellness Network, and Moe Keller, former Colorado State Senator and current Vice President of Public Policy and Strategic Initiatives at Mental Health Colorado.

Who should come

Absolutely anyone who is interested in advocating for social justice! While we focus on mental health, the lessons in our workshop are applicable to any social issue and we welcome people with all advocacy interests!

How much does it cost?

Absolutely nothing. The workshop is free, refreshments are provided, and we have free lot and street parking available!
