Story
We cordially invite you to this year’s State of AI, a fundraiser party hosted by the Advocacy Institute to celebrate our organization's 10th anniversary. Join us on Thursday, June 22 at 6:00pm for an evening filled with food, drinks, great speakers, and music.
Note about the venue: All guests will be required to show proof of COVID vaccination to enter.
At the State of AI, we'll be celebrating the hard work of New York's social justice advocates, including the members of our first-ever Advocacy Leadership Accelerator cohort. This is an opportunity to come together and recognize the incredible efforts of those who are working tirelessly to create positive change in our communities. This party is also a celebration of our organization’s remarkable achievements in the last decade as we have supported and coached many New Yorkers throughout the state who are working tirelessly to create positive change in their communities.
Our MC for the night will be Murad Awawdeh, Executive Director of the New York Immigration Coalition. Also joining us will be Tracie Gardner, Senior Vice President of Policy Advocacy at the Legal Action Center and major leader in the national harm reduction movement, and Nisha Tabassum, manager of the Excluded Workers Fund Coalition.
We hope you'll join us for this special occasion. And if you can't attend the event, you can still make a donation!
Finally, we are so grateful to our sponsors and the members of our host committee for helping to make this event happen!
