During the development of the AIA Virginia 2020-2022 Strategic Plan, there was an overwhelming consensus that there should be a concerted effort made to invest in future generations and develop visionary leaders for service. As such, the plan envisions the launch of a Virginia event that provides advocacy training and connects members with state legislators. The purpose of these meetings will be for AIA Virginia members to acquaint themselves with their in-district legislator(s) and effectively articulate the importance of architects and architecture in the community. The anticipated result is a structured and coordinated outreach event that will occur during the month of May.
More details will be provided in next month’s newsletter but let us know if you are interested in participating by filling out the interest form below.
