What is a Phone Zap?
A phone zap is an advocacy tactic where a group of people call a target (such as a politician), simultaneously and leave a prepared messages requesting a response to an issue or demand. This tactic helps advocates make sure their voices are heard. Policymakers often pay more attention to phone calls from constituents than they do to emails or letters.
Who is this webinar for?
Parents, caregivers, child care workers, advocates, grandparents, academics, employers, and anyone concerned with building a province-wide early learning and childcare system in NL.
What Child Care Now NL is calling for:
- A province-wide system of early learning and childcare that is affordable, high quality, inclusive, and available to all kids in Newfoundland and Labrador;
- Dignified working conditions and fair and competitive compensation for early childhood educators, including health and dental benefits.
