Capitol Hill Day | Thursday, April 12 | 2018 School Leaders Summit

AACS thanks you in advance for your participation in the 2018 School Leaders Summit & Capitol Hill Day at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington, D.C. Taking place April 12th, 2018 Capitol Hill Day is a significant component of AACS’ ongoing advocacy efforts and political outreach at the federal level. Your institution’s active involvement in Capitol Hill Day – along with students, alumni, employers and partners – is crucial in our efforts to ENLIGHTEN Congress and the Trump administration about the great benefits our schools provide to thousands of students each year.

Capitol Hill Day will also include pre-sessions and training opportunities featuring experienced government affairs advocates, policy experts, members of Congress and key staffers. These special sessions will be designed to enhance your advocacy skills and knowledge of federal higher education policy, and to provide up-to-date insights into current political and policy developments affecting our schools and students. AACS staff and consultants will assist with scheduling meetings, planning logistics and providing materials to facilitate your discussions.

While you are in Washington, D.C., for the Leaders Summit, we urge you to meet with your Congressional delegation and make your voice heard - ultimately, that is what Capitol Hill Day is all about.
