Washington Fly-Ins
Washington fly-ins can be a critical piece of any advocacy effort. Having stakeholders engage directly with Members of Congress and their staffs and Administration officials is a meaningful use of resources and time.

Our professionals have a long history of working with Congressional offices, Congressional Committees, Federal Agencies and Administration officials. Our experience and professional relationships allow us to structure your fly-in to best meet your needs.
Planning a successful fly-in is complicated and requires dedicated time and attention to detail. With years of experience organizing fly-ins and advocacy days, VSA can help clients identify goals and achievable outcomes for their fly-ins. VSA will make recommendations regarding the timing of the fly-in, aligning client availability and the legislative and executive calendars. VSA will help with meeting prioritization and determining which individuals should attend which meetings. VSA can schedule meetings, prepare briefing materials, provide training sessions for participants, accompany groups to meetings on the day of the fly-in, and assist in conducting timely follow up. VSA can also provide logistical support and recommendations for accommodations, catering, and other arrangements that will make your fly-in a success.
