Join CMF and a panel of your colleagues in a can't-miss seminar on how to better manage your mail program and constituent correspondence. During this interactive program participants will:

• Identify ways to innovatively address the onslaught of mail;
• Learn how to shorten and improve the writing and approval process; and
• Understand how to make constituents feel they were "heard," instead of feeling they just got a form letter.

The program will include recent research from congressional offices that utilize innovative methods to conduct operations and engage with citizens.

Who May Attend

This program is for Chiefs of Staff, Deputy Chiefs of Staff, Legislative Directors, and Communications Directors only.

While CMF recognizes that junior staff are involved in the mail operations in office, they are usually not authorized to unilaterally make changes to operations – this training is for senior staff in offices aiming to make significant improvements to their correspondence systems.
