Welcome to Our 2025 FCA Day on the Hill Information Page!

Legislative Platform 2025

2025 FCA Day at the Capital

March XX, 2025 – 9:30am – 4pm

The Florida Counseling Association Day at the Capital in Tallahassee is now scheduled for March XX, 2025.  Join fellow FCA members and partners in taking our message to our representatives.  We would like to have all participants to arrive by 9:30am at the front steps of the Capital for a picture.  We are requesting that each counselor/student schedule meetings with your house representatives and senator by going to the following link:  https://dos.fl.gov/elections/contacts/elected-officials/. You can also click on "Contact your Florida Senator" or "Contact your Florida Representative" and type in your address to find your elected officials. The site will provide you with phone numbers and even a link to email them directly. 

Use the capital phone number to contact your legislature’s office and schedule your appointment.  We are also looking forward to sitting in on committee hearings that day. We will provide more information as the days agenda is solidified.

Be on the lookout for FCA’s Legislative Platform which will be available soon!

Unsure how to meet with your legislators or how legislative advocacy works?

This training provides all you need to know about FCA’s Day on the Hill including how to schedule a meeting with your representatives and how to conduct a meeting with ease. We will also be scheduling another advocacy training once we have more information about what bills will be discussed and voted on in the next legislative session, which begins in March 2025.
