Government Relations with Amir Ameli
I am excited to introduce myself as your Business/Government Relations Manager here at Envisioning Access. My name is Amir Ameli, and I joined the team in 2023 with a dual role focusing on development and government relations. Since coming on board, I’ve been diligently working to expand our network of non-profit partnerships while also establishing connections with elected officials.
Our goal is simple yet crucial: to ensure that our organization’s efforts are recognized and supported by those in positions to make a difference.
As your Government Relations Manager, I am committed to ensuring that our organization’s mission is not only recognized but actively supported by legislative bodies at both the state and federal levels. With your help, we can advocate for meaningful change that directly impacts our community.
Our focus is clear: we aim to champion legislation that promotes meaningful employment opportunities, facilitates access to technology for higher education, and addresses the issue of social isolation among our community members. These are not just goals; they are essential pillars in our collective journey toward creating a more inclusive and equitable society.
I will keep you informed here and through our newsletters about the progress of our advocacy efforts and any legislative developments that affect our community. Your support and engagement are invaluable as we navigate this landscape of change together. Together, we can make a difference and ensure that Envisioning Access continues to positively impact lives within our community and beyond.
