Whether you’re new to advocacy or a seasoned advocate, you’ll get the tools, training, and community to make your voice heard on Capitol Hill.

Call on Congress takes place every March in Washington, D.C. While exact dates vary each year, you can expect updates on our website and emails well in advance. Can’t wait? You can start preparing anytime using our year-round advocacy resources!
