Interactive Telephone Advocacy Tools by Aristotle

The VOXConnect system connects advocates with their elected officials’ Capitol Hill or state legislative offices with ease. Your advocates simply dial a toll-free number, key in their zip code or individual member number, and select which elected official to be connected to. The caller is seamlessly transferred to that legislative office to deliver your message. At the end of the call, the caller has the option of returning to their list of legislators to be connected with another office. Advocates can hear one or multiple legislative updates, request Fax or e-mail documents, be transferred to federal and/or state legislators, send a personalized Fax letter, answer a survey, be transferred to voice mail systems, or your organization’s government affairs office.
