February 2024 - Student Network SIG Update

Kara Wagner (she/her), 2023–24 NASW-Illinois Chapter Social Work Intern

Hello students!

I hope you are all getting excited for Advocacy Day! As always, keep an eye out for what your campus and student liaisons are doing for Advocacy Day. Unsure if they have something going on? Reach out to your social work department or contact me, and I'll hopefully be able to help you find out how your campus is being involved for Advocacy Day!

If you would like to help your campus be involved with Advocacy Day, then become the student liaison on your campus. Our next meeting for the Student Liaison Network is February 29 at 7pm CST. Contact me if you would like to join in on that meeting! Application: https://naswil.wufoo.com/forms/z14a7g6v02lwmks/

Another AMAZING way to be involved in Advocacy Day would be to apply to become a Lobby Leader! You can find application information on our website. Also found on that page will be registration information to attend Advocacy Day. (https://www.naswil.org/advocacy-day ).

Looking forward to your involvement in the FIRST IN-PERSON Advocacy Day since 2019!

Best,

Kara Wagner (she/her)
