SUMMARY:AILA NE Media Training: Using Media and Social Media to Engage\, Educate\, and Advocate on Immigration
DESCRIPTION:AILA NE Media Training: Using Media and Social Media to Engage\, Educate\, and Advocate on Immigration \nImmigration law and policy are front and center in the news and the Trump Administration has filled their first six months with a host of executive actions on immigration. Most of the American public doesn’t understand what the current immigration law and policies truly are and that means that when changes are implemented (or attempted)\, the misinformation and disinformation only get louder and more confusing. Immigration practitioners must always search for new and different ways to best represent their clients AND educate the public. \nThis presentation will focus on ways to prepare so that when reporters call\, you know what to do. We will cover how to work with the media both reactively and proactively and how to use media and social media to advocate for your clients and fair immigration law and policy. All along the way we’ll be showing you how you can use existing AILA resources and plug in to ongoing efforts in order to make this outreach as simple as possible! \nWhat We’ll Cover in About 60 Minutes: \n\nWhy AILA Members Can and Should Engage with Media and Social Media\nHow To Engage\, Educate and Advocate (and How to Use AILA Resources)\nProtecting Vulnerable Clients\nKey Messaging Guidance\nUsing Social Media to Get the Message Out\n\nPresenters from the AILA Communications Team will share their insights in this interactive session. Slide deck and links will be shared after the fact; a recording will be made available for up to 60 days post-training. \nDate: July 21\, 2025 at 1:00pm\nRegistration link: https://aila-org.zoom.us/meeting/register/t6tfHbQPQG-hlC4kWorZOw
