Telling Your Story to the Media and Legislators
Presenters: CAPIO and CSDA
Every special district has a story to tell—about the essential services you provide, the people you serve, and the value you deliver to your community. Effectively sharing that story builds trust with the public, strengthens relationships with the media, and helps decision-makers understand your district’s priorities and funding needs.
In this practical, fast-paced session, you’ll hear communication strategies and real-world examples to help you:
- Identify and shape compelling stories that highlight your district’s impact and funding needs.
- Build positive working relationships with local reporters and media outlets.
- Communicate clearly and confidently with legislators and key stakeholders.
- Use storytelling to turn technical topics into relatable community benefits.
Participants will receive adaptable message frameworks and talking points to help their district tell its story with clarity, credibility, and confidence.
