We Honor Veterans announces new
Advocacy Toolkit Partner Resource
We Honor Veterans has
created a new toolkit to
help our partners advocate
and share experiences and
stories with elected
officials. Supporting over
4,100 partner organizations, the WHV team strives to provide the best resources
available to give our partners the tools they need to serve and honor our heroes at
the end of life.
In collaboration with the Hospice Action Network, we have developed the We
Honor Veterans Advocacy Toolkit that will enable our partners to reach out to their
Members of Congress, state and local officials and get them involved in veterancentric activities.
Reaching out and developing relationships with Members of Congress can seem
intimidating, however We Honor Veterans partners are already well-poised to
engage Members of Congress, state, and local officials. All elected officials are
concerned about the welfare of our nation's veterans, and the We Honor Veterans
program can be an effective way to engage Members of Congress in discussions
about hospice. The toolkit provides resources for in-district meetings, site visits,
sample press release/thank you letters as well as a video how-to on the steps and
best practices when involving a Member of Congress in a We Honor Veterans
Honor Ceremony.
Not a We Honor Veterans
partner? It's free to join. Visit
www.WeHonorVeterans.org
to learn more.
The toolkit debuted at the Hospice Action Network's Advocacy Intensive in July to a
session filled with We Honor Veterans partners. Rochelle Salinas of Heartland
Hospice and Greg Nelson of Hospice of the Piedmont presented on their experiences
hosting Congressional members for Veteran recognition events. By going step-bystep through the process and sharing their best practices, their fellow partners were
able to hear how to successfully hold an event as well as share stories and give
updates on different programs and projects across the country. Many partners
discussed what the program has done for their organization and discussed projects
and events that have been successful in their communities.
Go to the We Honor Veterans Advocacy Toolkit page to see how you can reach out
and connect with your Members of Congress and get them involved in your next
Veteran Honor Ceremony or contact the We Honor Veterans team with any
questions at veterans@nhpco.org.
