Advocacy and Outreach
One of the most
valuable benefits of a national organization is its ability to promote
the value of the profession to legislators and policymakers on the
local, state, and national levels.
ASBO International keeps its members informed about legislation that may affect them, serves as their voice on Capitol Hill, promotes legislation that will have a positive impact on school business management and the education of the nation's young people, and promotes members' access to the governmental decision makers.
