  • ARMY FOREIGN LIAISON NEWSLETTER for Members of the Washington Corps of Military Attachés
    ARMY FOREIGN LIAISON NEWSLETTER For Members of the Washington Corps of Military Attachés ********************************************************************************************************************* Summer 2015 ********************************************************************************************************************* FROM THE DIRECTOR: Summer officially began on 21 June, and with it the many wonderful events available within the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia. Many such events are special military programs that are free of charge, such as the Army Band’s concerts on the steps of the US Capitol and Twilight Tattoos on Fort Myer. I’d like to thank everyone that was able to participate in the recent Director of the Army Staff and G-2 co-hosted Twilight Tattoo. It certainly was a wonderful program. The Twilight Tattoos are typically held each Wednesday during the summer months, and I encourage everyone that has not yet had a chance to see one to participate in one of the shows; it’s truly a spectacular event. Summer always brings changes, both in the Military Attaché Corps and in Headquarters, Department of the Army. This newsletter highlights some of the key movements, and more changes will become clearer as the summer progresses, and we’ll be sure to inform the Attaché Corps of any changes that affect the Army senior leadership. Included in all these moves is my own, so this will be my last newsletter as the Director of Army Foreign Liaison. This past year has been extremely rewarding, and I will never forget the many good colleagues with whom I have had the pleasure of associating. I also want to take this opportunity to publicly thank the Foreign Liaison team who have selflessly supported me and have made Foreign Liaison a rewarding place in which to have served.

  • Introduction Lobbying and Advocacy
    Introduction This Legislative Handbook is designed to provide guidance and assistance to representatives of the New Jersey Association of Mental Health and Addiction Agencies, Inc. (NJAMHAA) member organizations who participate in legislative activities. Specifically, the Legislative Handbook presents the Association’s legislative policy and procedures, simplifies the complexities of the legislative process, and provides an orientation to grassroots lobbying for all members. On behalf of its members, NJAMHAA meets with legislators, policy makers and business leaders in order to influence legislative, regulatory and funding decisions in ways that have the most positive outcome on its members. Through increased visibility and a stronger presence, NJAMHAA ensures that members’ concerns are expressed and that their interests are represented. This allows members the peace of mind of knowing that legislative or regulatory changes that are made will occur with their views expressed. NJAMHAA is committed to facilitating meaningful exchange both within the Association and with other industry stakeholders to achieve mutual advocacy. While NJAMHAA aggressively lobbies state and federal legislators on behalf of its members, these lawmakers need to hear from you, their local constituents, those who elect them. The louder and stronger the voice, the more impact that it has on all who hear it. Please use and refer back to this valuable resource to familiarize yourself with legislative advocacy procedures and to contact key legislators to collectively join other NJAMHAA members in advancing the cause for an improved community behavioral health system. Lobbying and Advocacy Oftentimes, the words “lobbying” and “advocacy” are used interchangeably. The legal definition of lobbying usually involves attempting to influence legislation.
