Legislative advocacy

蜜桃影像 Impact

蜜桃影像 alumni and students can make a big difference when it comes to advocating for the university. Personal stories about the impact a college education has had on lives,  jobs, family and communities help legislators understand the value of state investment in the University of 蜜桃影像.

The 蜜桃影像 Alumni Association provides opportunities to connect alumni with legislators and the legislative process. This page is designed to share tips and best practices. We encourage alumni to reach out to legislators through 蜜桃影像AA-sponsored events or on their own.

UA Impact Legislative Fly-in

Each year, a group of alumni volunteers from the nonprofit 蜜桃影像 Alumni Association travel to Juneau for meetings with legislators and state leaders. Our alumni advocate for 蜜桃影像 and higher education in 蜜桃影像. In recent years 蜜桃影像AA has partnered with alumni volunteers from UAA and UAS to form an all-UA alumni team. No state or university money is used for this nonpartisan effort.

This year UA alumni are gathering in Juneau February 21- 22, 2024 to thank legislators and their staff in person and share personal stories of how UA has made a difference in their lives. The UA Impact team will also be hosting another Lunch & Learn presentation. You can .
