ZERO TO THREE Call for Families to Take to the Capitol for Strolling Thunder 2025

January 23, 2025

Release from NCIT Member Zero to Three

ZERO TO THREE is bringing 51 families with a baby under 3 – one from every state and Washington, DC – to Capitol Hill for Strolling ThunderTM. Do you know a family who might want to share their story with their Members of Congress? Help us get connected!

We value your partnership and hope that you will once again join us in making this event a success!

  • Use this toolkit to spread the word about Strolling Thunder with your networks;

We are looking for families with at least one child who will be under the age of 3 on May 20 to come to Washington, DC to encourage Congress to write a new chapter for babies. We will:

  • Cover travel expenses for the selected parent or caregiver, any children under the age of 3 on May 20, and one adult travel companion; and

  • Provide training and support for meetings with their Members of Congress and media or other advocacy opportunities.

Families must be available to participate in preparation as we lead up to the event and must be available to travel to DC from May 18 – 21.
