Baltic Advocacy Days 2026

The Joint Baltic American National Committee (JBANC) will host the 9th annual Baltic Advocacy Days in Washington, D.C., from March 16 – 18, 2026. During Advocacy Days, Baltic Americans and friends of the Baltics meet with their congressional offices to support strengthening the U.S.–Baltic security relationship and curbing Russian aggression. Advocacy Days is not only an opportunity to inform congressional offices about the importance of Baltic security issues, but also a celebration of the Baltic diaspora and the policy stakeholders in Washington who work to build a strong U.S.–Baltic relationship.

No advocacy experience is required to take part in Advocacy Days. Before meetings, participants will have the opportunity to join panel discussions and briefings on the most pertinent security issues in the Baltic region. Participants are also invited to receptions and networking opportunities that bring together our communities and celebrate Baltic culture.

Registration will open in the first week of January. Sign up for the Baltic Call to Action Unit in the bio for the latest advocacy updates.

We look forward to welcoming you all to Washington!

  • Participants in Baltic Advocacy Days will meet with their Congressional offices to advocate for policies that improve the U.S.-Baltic relationship. Participants are divided by state, meeting with Congressional offices in both the House of Representatives and the Senate.

    March 16 will feature panel discussions, training, and networking opportunities with D.C. based stakeholders and other advocates.

    March 17 and 18 advocates will take meetings with their Congressional offices and have the opportunity to attend receptions that promote Baltic security to members of Congress.

  • Participants in advocacy days must be physically present in Washington D.C. to partake in meetings with their Congressional office.

    Our office will work with your availability and schedule meetings during your availability in Washington.

    No experience is required. We provide participants with briefing papers as well as an expert in every meeting to help guide the conversation.

  • Baltic Advocacy Days is an opportunity to ensure the voices of Baltic Americans and friends of the Baltics are heard.

    The most proven way to create political change is to meet with Congressional offices in Washington. JBANC provides the information and organizes the meetings. The only thing we require is your participation!

  • The confirmed location for training and receptions is typically two weeks before the advocacy days. This schedule will be emailed to all participants.

    Meetings with Congressional offices are confirmed one week ahead of the advocacy days, although additional meetings may be offered.
