Wisconsin Wetlands Association Advocacy Assistant
Wisconsin Wetlands Association strives to serve as the "eyes and ears" of Wisconsin's wetland enthusiasts at the state capitol regarding important policy, judicial, legislative or legal activities that would have a lasting negative affect on wetlands in the state. But personal testimony from citizens can be much more powerful than direct lobbying by our staff on many issues. We rely on volunteer advocates from all parts of the state to voice their opinions by contacting legislators and other elected officials and by attending and presenting testimony at wetland-related public hearings. Can you be a Wetlands Advocate? Contact us at policy@wisconsinwetlands.org or 608-250-9971.

We are looking for people to help staff our booth at events, which would involve offering Wisconsin Wetlands Association literature to visitors and signing interested people up to receive our newsletter. No formal training is required - just enthusiasm for wetlands and Wisconsin Wetlands Association's mission. Our staff and volunteers will assist new volunteers so that they are familiar with the materials. Families are welcome! Contact WWA at 608-250-9971.
