"Piper delivered an outstanding advocacy storytelling webinar for our Big Brothers Big Sisters agencies ahead of our annual Capitol Hill Day. The webinar content she provided was invaluable—helping agency leaders understand how to seamlessly weave together research and local stories to build a compelling case for federal investment of our programs. The practical tool she created for attendees prepared them with a clear framework to craft impactful narratives. The training was very well received by attendees and many said how they felt better prepared to tell their story in an effective, succinct way during their Congressional meetings. Piper’s expertise and warm and engaging approach made this an incredibly effective session for our advocates, and we highly recommend her to any organization looking to elevate their advocacy efforts."
"When it comes to the most helpful aspect of this program, it is hard to pick one aspect since so much of the experience was organic and cumulative. I think just having a place to discuss these ideas and issues in a candid way was incredibly valuable and uplifting.
"Stories Change Power was a valuable addition to our annual physician advocacy training, and helped our members understand the value of storytelling in giving voice to the issues that impact their ability to care for their patients."
"Make the time to join a learning community. The insight you get from getting outside of your day-to-day context and joining a Learning Community is incredibly validating. Everyone in the group had such different jobs from one another but we were all able to discuss and share ideas about the biggest issues we face in advocacy communications."
"Talking and listening to other participants gave me great ideas and helped me see things differently, leading to new and better ways to approach my organization's advocacy communications. The facilitator was amazing at creating a space where everyone felt respected, could work together, and share openly."
"One of the most important things a facilitator can do is get to know her audience and Piper Hendricks really does her homework. She knows her topc and how to deliver it. Piper is both a great listener and speaker."
[The Learning Community] was not even remotely like any kind of 'training' I've ever been to. It is quite a transformative experience by itself, regardless of ongoing engagement (although you should obviously do that, too). It's the best advocacy workshop I've ever attended by a long, long way.
