State by State Advocacy Toolkits

    State-by-State Advocacy Resources

    When taking part in NPCA's National Days of Action, district office meetings or related advocacy initiatives, we work to provide you with top-line materials, including state specific background materials.

    • Congressional Delegations: For each state, we have updated (as of August 2017) two-page summaries of Senators and Congressmen/women of the 115th Congress, including: Contact information, committee  assignments, key actions related to the Peace Corps, and more. Use this information judiciously, as a lack of indicated support does not always mean the lawmaker is not supportive of  the Peace Corps. One such example is some lawmakers may not sign a “Dear Colleague” letter because the letter is addressed to the committee on which they sit.
    • Your State and the Peace Corps Summaries:  We have prepared two-page summaries (updated as of February 2017) with Peace Corps information related to individual states and profiles of some notable RPCVs with current/past connections to your state.  Please contact us if you have updated information that we may want to incorporate into these documents in the future.
    • Peace Corps Reflections: Utilizing powerful Peace Corps community comments found in NPCA's 2016 member directory, we have compiled state-by-state testimonies on the impact and importance of the Peace Corps.
    • State Retirement Credit Information: These documents provide background information on policies for state employees who seek retirement credit for their Peace Corps service (as of 11/6/2015).
