Developing an Outreach Plan to Celebrate your Town’s Woods, Wetlands and Wildlife

zoom

It can be daunting to plan the outreach for a series of events or plan an outreach strategy that may lead up to a proposed municipal change, sometimes years in the making. In this webinar you’ll learn more about creating an outreach plan with multiple events, separating messages for different audiences and identifying an over-arching theme that helps tie the series together. The panel of presenters includes Elise Schadler and Jens Hilke, with years of municipal technical assistance experience, and Megan Davin, a Communications and Outreach specialist. Join us for this exciting event to help improve your commission’s communications.
