Once we have a bill number we will be asking for specific help from you all. I'm going to compile a list of everyone who volunteered for specific jobs and then I'll send you an email letting you know what we need.
I can tell you that we are planning a day in Raleigh, Saturday May 5th to support International Midwives Day. Several folks volunteered to help with fun events for NCFOM, this would be one of those fun events. We want to see HUNDREDS to 1,000 plus show up for this. We can have balloons, stickers, signs, booths that tell everyone that we want quality, competent maternity care in NC. We would LOVE to get as much local media there as we can.
An ideas on this? I know we have some parents out there who would love to get involved!
We have also talked about having certain days of the month set aside for visiting your legislators. For example, every other Tuesday is Stroller/Sling day. Mothers, fathers and babies visit with their legislators, then spend the rest of the day at the local museums or place spaces or have a playdate with other CPM supporters.
What do you think?
These are the types of activities that we have thought of so far that seem very promising that we will need help with.
We will be posting more specific information on this, but you are the consumers and we need your ideas and help to do this.
It's SO EXCITING!!
