What is the Advocacy Toolkit?

CPF Advocacy is...

...Organizing around a specific issue, building community support around an issue to influence decision makers, and advocating for French Immersion and for our children’s education.

The CPF Advocacy Toolkit Includes...

  • Online resource available to everyone
  • Series of documents, templates and guides that allow you to take advocacy in to your own hands
  • Using resources from these sources:
    • Existing Documents from CPF BC & Yukon Branch
    • Existing Documents from other Provinces
    • Learning from outreach and lobbying work done in the past in BC

Purpose of this Tool is...

  • To give beginners a good framework for how to conduct advocacy work
  • To give experts some new tips and tools
  • To make templates available
  • So we don’t have to reinvent the wheel – it’s important to share tactics and ideas that have worked in other regions
  • To get what we want!
Please note that this Toolkit is a continually evolving resource.  The CPF - BC & Yukon Branch office is currently developing new pages and documents that will be added to the Advocacy Toolkit in the future.  We are also aware that this resource must be adaptable to changes in our membership and issues faced within our many chapters, thus feel free to contact us with your feedback!


The Toolkit is divided into four categories:
