The WV Community Development Hub, in partnership with the WV Healthy Kids Healthy Families Coalition and the WV Center on Budget and Policy, is hosting Northern and Southern Regional Policy Workshops.
The workshops offer policy and advocacy training PLUS the opportunity to dig deeply into one specific policy area of your choice during afternoon workshops. Each workshop will culminate with a presentation from Sen. John Unger about how communities and politicians can work together to make change in the Legislature.
This conference is perfect for ministers, working families, teachers, students, parents, social workers, and others who are interested in learning more about how to make policy change in their communities, and statewide!
Attendees are encouraged to register for the workshop closest to their community, though you are welcome to attend either or both based on your area of interest.

Comprehensive Community Development, Raising the Minimum Wage, Juvenile Justice Reform, Substance Abuse, Sexual Health Education, and Affordable Housing
