Alliance Member-Only Meeting with Nicole Parker, Lewis-Burke Associates and Jason Van Pelt, Executive Vice President, Crossroads Strategies

On Wednesday, January 22, at noon ET we hosted an Alliance member-only discussion featuring Jason Van Pelt (Crossroads Strategies) and Nicole Parker (Lewis-Burke Associates). 

The session opened with a brief overview of the current federal landscape, followed by a rapid-fire Advocacy Q&A focused on the real challenges facing advocates today. In our recent member poll, many of you pointed to navigating a polarized political environment, identifying the right policymakers and pathways for engagement, and sustaining momentum when progress feels slow.  

Please note: This meeting was open only to Research!America Alliance members and was not open to the press or organizations outside the Alliance.
