CommuniK-9, Inc.

Sue completed Policy Partners-Legislative “Advocacy” Training program. Sue recently participated in a nine month long training program offered by Community Crossroads, Inc. The program included targeted trainings about the NH legislative process and how Bills effect people with disabilities, provided guidelines for how to talk to your Representatives about pending legislation, how it will effect others and how to elicit their support. One-to-one mentoring from a trained advocate was provided to help participants acquire the skills to successfully participate in the legislative process and help craft a better future for people with disabilities. This was a rewarding and informative program. I am so happy I participated and plan to continue to remain active as an advocate and leader for people with developmental disabilities in NH.
