Making Connections That Matter

The Toy Association™ believes advocacy is strongest when it’s personal and visible. That’s why we host and participate in key events throughout the year to create opportunities for members to connect directly with lawmakers, regulators, and national leaders. These moments — whether on Capitol Hill, at Toy Fair®, or on the White House lawn — amplify the toy industry’s voice and highlight the importance of play in childhood development and the broader economy.

Our events help foster real conversations, strengthen strategic relationships, and give members a front-row seat to the policymaking process. Contact Kathrin Belliveau, chief policy officer at The Toy Association, for more information.
