CCL Training: Attending Town Hall and Candidate Forums

Join Jennifer Tyler, CCL's Director of Government Affairs, for a training that will review attending town hall and candidate forum plans. Town hall meetings and candidate forums are settings where the member of Congress and candidates want to connect with people in the district. When these events are large and structured, the opportunity is different than when they are small. Through good planning and by being quick to adapt to the situation, you can take advantage of these opportunities. They are worth planning for with the same care that you plan for a lobby meeting.
