Advocacy Resources

To better assist our members with their policy efforts, we’ve compiled some useful resources below:

Urge Congress to Oppose Budget Cuts & Support Latino Communities

• Use our ready to go letter to urge your member of Congress to oppose any budget cuts made to key community and economic development programs that are vital to the NALCAB network and Latino communities in FY25.

Public Policy Advocacy Toolkit

• A step-by-step guide to policy advocacy, with sample advocacy materials to save you time and facilitate your advocacy work.

Public Policy Packet

• This packet describes NALCAB’s Public Policy work in a snapshot and tells policymakers who we are, what we do to support Latino communities, and the public policy priorities we’re advocating for.

Case Study Template

• This template will help you communicate to your policymakers. It provides a framework for you to describe your organization, your work, your goals, and why a particular public policy issue matters to your community. Case studies are a great way to show policymakers why a given issue matters to Latino communities.

• NALCAB’s ‘Summer in the States’ campaign is a month-long event during August that offers a vital opportunity to champion Latino economic interests as Congress deliberates this year’s 12 appropriations bills.
