MSPA invites YOU to participate in the annual Legislative Day in Annapolis. Each
year, we encourage our members to arrange appointments with their Maryland
Delegates and Senators to discuss current issues, such as funding and bills related to
education, and to generally promote the field of School Psychology. This year, we
encourage YOU to participate.
Follow these easy steps to participate:
1. Find your legislators and contact them! http://mdelect.net/
2. Set up an appointment for January 10th to meet with them or their staff between
8:30 and 12 in their offices.
3. On January 10th, before your meetings, come to the MSTA Headquarters in
Annapolis for breakfast and discussion. During breakfast, meet with the MSPA
Legislative Committee about talking points for you to share with your legislators at
your prearranged meetings. Items of concern include:
NCSP stipend recognition * Model Licensure Act *General funding *
Who we are and what we do
4. After your meetings, return to the MSTA headquarters, and participate in the
MSPA Executive Board meeting.
Every member counts, and every face-to-face meeting with legislators helps promote
the field of School Psychology and its importance to the students (and parents) of Maryland. YOU can make a difference!
