Your community needs YOU to have an impact on public policy decisions. You can persuade policymakers to allocate resources to provide effective services and quality programs. You can inspire hope and create opportunities for a better tomorrow.
Take Action
Here are just a few ways you can advocate:
Be Informed
Learn how your community ranks in academic attainment, financial stability, and health.
Engage With Your Community
Host a community conversation with your friends, coworkers or neighbors. Learn about what people say are their aspirations for your community and talk about how you can work together to address challenges.
Raise Awareness About a Cause
Use social media tools to educate your friends and networks about an issue you care about.
Speak Out
Contact your representative in Congress about Health, Education, Financial Stability, or basic essential needs issues.
Register to Vote
One of the easiest ways to affect change in your community is by voting. Whether the issue is local, regional, or national, we urge each person in our community to register to vote and participate in every election. Make your voice heard and make your vote count!
