Make Home Care Heard: Advocacy Primer for County Delegation Meetings (Webinar)

Description

Florida lawmakers are beginning a statewide series of County Legislative Delegation meetings, giving residents and stakeholders — including home care professionals — a direct opportunity to share concerns and priorities before the 2026 Florida Legislative Session that convenes on Tuesday, January 13, 2026.

These annual public forums bring together the members of the Florida House of Representatives and Senate who represent who represent your county. They're listening — but only to the voices in the room. If home care professionals don't show up, other industries will fill the void. 

For the home care industry, these gathering are a vital platform to ensure lawmakers understand the real-world challenges providers and patients face. 

Join us for a live webinar designed to equip you to make the most of these meetings. You'll learn how to prepare, what to say, and you'll receive tools to leave behind that legislators can take with them to the Capitol.

• How to prepare an effective, personalized message for lawmakers.
• Tips for speaking clearly and confidently at in-person or virtual town halls.
