Utilizing the Survey of the States • Advocacy • The Survey of the States can be used as a “door opener” with state policy makers who are in a position to effect education requirements in your state. The survey can provide them with information about their state, and how their state compares with others. • Create Visibility • Distribute the survey to your board, funders, local press, contacts and others in your network to create awareness of your council and the survey. • Create local champions • Identify members of your network that will act as “true champions” of economic & financial literacy, and ask them to use the survey as a talking point to help create awareness and dialogue around these important issues. • Communications • Use the survey as part of your communications efforts to develop interest in your organization. The survey can be used on your website, proposals and your own newsletter. It provides valuable content and helps to bring attention to our mission. Council for Economic Education - Proprietary
