Grassroots Advocacy Toolkit
This toolkit, developed by Argentum, explains the importance of grassroots advocacy and provides effective communication tools.
One of Argentum’s top priorities is to monitor legislative and regulatory activity in Washington, D.C., as well as across all 50 states. Our goal is to advocate for meaningful laws and regulations and try to prevent passage of reform that would negatively impact our member companies and the residents they serve.
Argentum members can use the Grassroots Toolkit and Resource Bank to support communication efforts with representatives and encourage knowledge building around trending issues that may affect senior living. Apply for the Argentum STAR program to be recognized for your extraordinary efforts.
