For years, Pat Libby has been teaching everyday citizens how to pass laws. Most of them knew next to nothing about the legislative process when they got started, yet many surprised themselves by passing a law on their first try. The Empowered Citizens Guide provides an easy, 10-step framework that breaks down the legislative process into bite-sized pieces. For those who are passionate about creating change in their communities, cities, or states this book provides a simple recipe to make a difference.
Libby provides an explanation of terms related to advocacy and lobbying as well as the legal rules for public charities that want to lobby. A detailed overview of the ten steps is illustrated by a real-life example of how a mother, whose son's addiction was fueled by over-the-counter drugs, fought alongside a few friends to pass a law that addressed a root of the problem. The Empowered Citizens Guide is the perfect text for those who want to create meaningful change.
Pat Libby is one of the nation's leading experts on citizen lobbying campaigns. A long-time nonprofit leader and recovering academic, she is author of both The Lobbying Strategy Handbook, and Cases in Nonprofit Management. Pat has made it her mission to teach people how to create change through the legislative process. She is also the founder of the Nonprofit Institute at the University of San Diego.
