The DANC Government Relations Forum was recently reimagined with these purposes:
- Assist the DANC Executive Director in reviewing issues related to DANC and provide advice and recommendations to the DANC Board and Management Council regarding same.
- Monitor State and Federal legislative agendas to identify legislation that is relevant to the DANC membership; provide recommendations, if appropriate, to the DANC Board and Management Council on policy positions.
- Develop strategies to educate and communicate with legislators, organizations and other relevant parties regarding the DANC and our position on any particular legislative issue as directed by the DANC Board and Management Council.
- Develop strategies to educate DANC members on relevant government related issues
- Identify statewide and national associations with similar interests and provide recommendations and advice to the DANC Board and Management Council concerning opportunities to align organizations to strengthen advocacy on key issues.
