Lobo Advocacy

You Can Help!

UNM alumni can play a uniquely important role helping the university communicate its needs and priorities to elected officials. Legislators are most receptive to opinions expressed by their friends, neighbors and constituents.

Three ways to work with elected officials:

The Lobos for Legislation program provides opportunities for alumni to interact with their legislators year-round through receptions, awards and other activities.
The Lobo Link program matches UNM Alumni and friends with specific legislators, to keep the legislators informed about UNM needs, accomplishments, and interests.
The Annual Congressional Reception provides an opportunity for UNM alumni from the Washington DC area and key UNM administrators to interact with New Mexico's Congressional delegation.

This Alumni Association sponsored program works with the UNM Office of Government and Community Relations. It serves as a pipeline of information to alumni and friends of UNM on legislative matters.
