Ways to advocate

You already have an audience. Use it on purpose.

Advocacy sounds like a campaign. In practice it's usually one person sending one link to one other person at exactly the right moment.

  1. Share what actually helps

    Most people don't need a campaign — they need the right resource at the right moment. Pass along the crisis lines, the PATH scholarship, a translated guide.

  2. Talk about it where you already are

    A classroom, a team, a group chat, a feed. Normalising the conversation is unglamorous and it works.

  3. Write to someone you'll never meet

    Handwritten notes go inside Care Canisters. It costs a pen and five minutes and it is the part recipients mention most.

  4. Bring us to a room we're not in

    Clinics, schools, youth groups, student orgs, community centres. An introduction from you goes further than an email from us.

Share it in the right language

Sometimes advocacy is one sentence, said correctly.

Turn advocacy into something countable.

A chapter, a fundraiser, or a stack of handwritten notes.
