Advocacy Days, part of The Arc’s Advocacy Partnership Project, are held during each legislative session to involve individuals with intellectual/developmental disabilities (IDD), their families and their service providers in the legislative process, giving them opportunities to make their voices heard by their legislators and to have an impact on policy and budget legislation that affects the services and supports available to them.

In 2025 we will offer a mixture of opportunities for people to participate.  All Advocacy Days begin at 10:00 am.- 11:30 am. 

On January 15th, there will be a live Advocacy Day, the program begins at 10:00 am at United Churches in Olympia. The morning program will be live streamed. All other Advocacy Days will be virtual to make the meetings more accessible to people all around the state.

We will also be coordinating with several organizations who will be holding live rallies. Watch for further details.
