Job Description

Professor Becki Hornung and the Social Work Student Association invite students from any major to join us in traveling to Madison, Wisconsin Wednesday, April 9 for NASW-WI Advocacy Day 2025.

Please consider joining us if you have an interest in gaining legislative advocacy training on important social justice issues. This year, some of the key areas of focus are:

Medicaid Expansion: Currently, Wisconsin remains only one of 10 states that do not accept federal funds to expand the income limits for those who qualify for Medicaid.

Raise the Age: In this training, you’ll gain information regarding the current Wisconsin policy of referring 17-year-olds to adult court and the campaign to end this policy.

Gun Violence Prevention: In this training, we’ll discuss gun violence prevention legislation, including red flag and universal background check laws.

Advocacy 101: In this training, an experienced lobbyist will discuss the basics of advocating in the Wisconsin State Legislature.

For more information, please send an email to Prof. Hornung at rhornung@carthage.edu by no later than Monday, March 3.
