Advocacy Tips

  • Educate yourself on the issues.

  • Talk about how pharmacists and pharmacy legislation benefit your community.

  • Tell your story, not just the talking points.

  • You're the expert! Be a resource for your legislator. 

  • Send a handwritten thank you note after the event to any legislator you spoke with. IPA can help with this.
