Do you want to confidently be prepared for what’s to come at the 2025 Minnesota Legislative session? Want to be in-the-know about how nonprofits can best show up at the People’s House (aka the MN State Capitol) and what dynamics are at play?
Join us at the best of all MCN events (in the humble opinion of the public policy team) for Session Lineup, an opportunity to hear directly from lawmakers about their priorities for the upcoming session, issues they think will dominate the debate, and take questions from our powerhouse community of nonprofit advocates (yes, us!), as we are experts on knowing what our communities need to thrive.
Learn about the inside-baseball strategies from the MCN policy team, along with our teammates from the Minnesota Budget Project. We will focus on relevant themes nonprofits need to know and learn how nonprofits can impact advocacy efforts at the Capitol.
Join us for Session Lineup 2025 and leave prepared to walk away with confidence, concrete next steps, and a community of nonprofit neighbors joined together to make our state a place where all thrive.
Pay What You Can (PWYC): We encourage you to pay the registration rate that is meaningful to and possible for you. While earned revenue from our events is a significant portion of our operating budget, supporting the policy and advocacy work we do on behalf of nonprofits, we aim to keep our fees accessible, often below market rate, and offer further reduced entry points for those who need them to participate in professional development. Access to critical information about the democratic process is important, which is why MCN offers Pay What You Can rates of $0 and $29 for this event. If your participation is dependent on a PWYC rate, please register with the promo code that corresponds with your accessible price point below.
- $29 (Code: PWYC29)
- $0 (Code: PWYCZERO)
