This members-only webinar is part of n4a's Conversations on Advocacy series.

In our fourth installment in our Conversations on Advocacy webinar series, we’ll bring you an example of state-level advocacy success that could be replicated in other states! Tune in to learn how Michigan's Aging Network utilized a data-driven strategy to enlist the support of a conservative governor and legislature to increase state general fund appropriations by 40 percent in four years. Learn details on how the Silver Key Coalition constructed a data-driven approach that made a convincing argument to make Michigan a "no wait list" state for non-Medicaid in-home services, and secured increased funding.
