YOUR ADVOCATE SUPPORT PROGRAM, BY DESIGN

LPA Advocate Workshop programs are customized to fit your needs—they're never one-size-fits-all. We start with a Discovery and Planning phase, where we meet with you and your team to understand your advocacy goals, messaging, and the specific needs of your advocates. Together, we define clear outcomes and set specific goals. If needed, we also help refine your advocacy messaging.

From there, we design a customized program that typically includes these three key areas:

1. Advocate Engagement and Prep

We prepare your advocates for a successful and engaging workshop experience through interactive pre-workshop activities. These may include thought-provoking exercises or readings from Living Proof: Telling Your Story to Make a Difference.

2. Fundamentals and Developmental Exercises

Advocates learn best practices for making an impact with personal stories through a combination of coaching instruction and interactive exercises.

3. Practice and Coaching

Advocates receive presentation and/or media skills practice and immediate feedback and encouragement from coaches in an inviting, safe and professional environment.
