NEW: MACC Zooms In On: Accessing Legislative Funding Opportunities
Join political strategist Amy Koch from Hylden Advocacy and Law Tuesday, August 31st from 11:00 am – 12:00 pm to talk about how your organization can navigate funding processes at our state legislature. It can feel a bit inaccessible and mysterious unless you’ve got someone in the know. Fortunately we do! With her background as both a MN state Senator and her current work as a political strategist Amy has seen all sides of the legislative process.
- Learn about legislative budget appropriations and how your organization can be included.
- Learn about how to approach a bonding request - where to get started and what to do next.
- 2022 will be a key 2nd year of ARP (American Rescue Plan) funds, learn how your organization can access those dollars!
