Its standing up for others and what we believe in. Whatever you feel strongly about, whether it's children being able to reach their full potential or caring for those who are aging. We all have the power to make a difference in our community by finding our voice and joining it with others. Advocacy can take many forms. Talking to your friends, neighbors and coworkers about your involvement in United Way of Boone County or other worthy organizations - and encouraging them to get involved. Staying informed about political issues and candidates and voting. Going to a city council or school board meeting and speaking out about an issue that concerns you. Organizing a neighborhood group to address local issues.
