Programs
General Body Meetings
GOPLSA’s General Body Meetings are monthly, members-only gatherings designed to keep the association aligned, informed, and engaged. These meetings feature guest speakers, panel discussions, and issue-focused forums with policymakers, senior staff, and subject-matter experts. The goal is to foster substantive discussion, share institutional knowledge, and strengthen professional cohesion across Capitol Hill.
Membership Groups and Coffee
Membership Groups and Coffee are designed to create intentional, smaller-scale connections within GOPLSA. Members are placed into focused work groups and paired through a structured coffee chat program to encourage relationship-building across offices, committees, and experience levels. This program prioritizes meaningful professional connections over large, impersonal networking events.
GOP Innovate
GOP Innovate brings together Republican policy staff to collaborate on ideas, share initiatives, and sharpen professional skills. Through policy workshops, roundtables, and targeted training sessions, members engage on real-world legislative challenges while developing the analytical and strategic tools needed to succeed as policy professionals on Capitol Hill.
GOP Service Corps
The GOP Service Corps reflects GOPLSA’s commitment to service beyond the workplace. This program organizes opportunities for members to give back to the community through volunteer efforts and civic engagement initiatives. It reinforces the principle that public service extends beyond government work and into meaningful contributions to the communities we represent.
Mentorship and Fellowship
The Mentorship and Fellowship program is focused on investing in GOPLSA’s members and ensuring new staff feel supported from day one. Through structured mentorship pairings and peer engagement, the program helps members navigate Capitol Hill, develop professionally, and build confidence in their roles. The emphasis is on retention, growth, and long-term success.
Tee-Publicans
Tee-Publicans is GOPLSA’s golf club, offering members an informal setting to build relationships and unwind outside the office. The program hosts regular outings and small group play, creating space for networking, mentorship, and camaraderie in a relaxed environment.
