    Join L and E Chairs Nicholas and James as well as each Chapter L and E chair discussing the ins and outs of how to conduct Capitol Hill meetings. This demystifying conversation is to help embolden delegates as they prepare to advocate for TRIO from a practical standpoint. This session will also be a working meeting for states to meet with team leads and spend intentional time figuring out the logistics of each state and their respective congressional meetings.
