Advocacy Toolkit
CPF Advocacy is organizing around a specific issue, building community support around an issue to influence decision makers, and advocating for French Immersion and for our children’s education.
Please note that this Toolkit is a continually evolving resource. The CPF – BC & Yukon Branch office is currently developing new pages and documents that will be added to the Advocacy Toolkit in the future. We are also aware that this resource must be adaptable to changes in our membership and issues faced within our many chapters, so feel free to contact us with your feedback and suggestions!
