The National Viral Hepatitis
Roundtable
needs your input and expertise
Please send your ideas, materials and input to info@nvhr.org by
August 17, 2007. Information gathered during this open comment period
will be used to develop the content of the advocacy materials, which
will be rolled out this Fall.
The NVHR Communications Work Group and Ogilvy Public Relations are developing
an advocacy toolkit consisting of materials that will aid in our collective
lobbying and advocacy efforts. The purpose is to project a unified voice
for the elimination of viral hepatitis and to demonstrate strength in
numbers.
This new tool is a way that we can communicate the National Hepatitis
Elimination Strategy in a consistent and powerful way. As
a coordinator and driver of the national movement to eliminate viral
hepatitis, NVHR seeks new avenues, such as this toolkit, that allow
us to further our efforts.
To make sure the toolkit is as useful to you as possible, we are asking
for your input. We’re looking for your:
- Fact sheets – On hepatitis, treatment, screening
or other relevant topics
- Testimonials – Personal stories reflecting
the impact of hepatitis on the lives of real people
- Success stories – Description of strategies,
campaigns and events that have worked for your organization
- Talking points – Top discussion points that
your organization shares with policymakers on the topic of hepatitis
elimination
- Model legislation – Text of hepatitis legislation
that you share with state or national policymakers
- Other Information – Please share any other
content that you think would be helpful to other NVHR member
We welcome your feedback and ideas on how to make the toolkit in line
with your needs.
