    How to Create Stories to Move Lawmakers' Hearts, Minds and VOTES

    People have trouble remembering facts, but they never forget a good story. Effective advocacy appeals to the heart, as well as the head and political health, of the legislator. Learn how to organize and present your story through the tactics used by actors. This presentation includes the seven key elements of public policy advocacy storytelling, and walks participants through an exercise to develop their own personal story to move the hearts, minds and VOTES of lawmakers.
