211CA, a partnership of UWCA and CAIRS,
developed the materials below to use in the 2-1-1 educational outreach
and in their push for co-sponsors.The United Ways and 2-1-1 call
centers work together closely to have a coordinated plan. They
determine who has the strongest relationship with the various House
members and assign as lead person who is also responsible for
coordinating with the partner organization, whether a 2-1-1 or a United
Way. They bring in outside "influencer" when and where needed to help
secure co-sponsorship. At the Useful Documents & Resources section are links to their strategy memo, 2-1-1CA
Fact Sheet, and sample co-sponsor ask letters. |
