Advocacy and Policy Change in 2021 and Beyond

The November election added three new members to Greenville County Council, gave the Republicans a supermajority in the state legislature, and flipped the US Senate and Presidency to Democrats (with South Carolina’s federal delegation firmly holding our position as a red state).

GPP and NPA hosted an expert panel to discuss what to expect (and what’s already underway) in our local, state, and federal policy-making bodies and how the nonprofit and philanthropic sector can engage in policy change.
