POPVOX Foundation's Departure Dialogues Give Former Feds a Voice

Anne Meeker from the POPVOX Foundation joins the FedUpward Podcast to talk about the Departure Dialogues Project—a unique initiative empowering former federal employees to share candid feedback that can help shape better laws and policies.

The POPVOX Foundation, led by former congressional staffers, focuses on strengthening the policymaking "feedback loop" between Congress, the executive branch, and constituents. With Departure Dialogues, they're creating a safe and constructive platform where departing feds can highlight inefficiencies, roadblocks, and opportunities for improvement in government operations.

Learn how you can participate, what themes are already emerging (like the Paperwork Reduction Act and budgeting process), and why your voice matters more than ever.

If you're a current or former fed, this is your chance to help strengthen government effectiveness and efficiency—using your experience to drive positive change.
