Volunteer

We notice a subtle shift in ourselves when we volunteer. We feel more connected to others, and we become less absorbed in the normal stresses of daily life. We share our experiences with others and want to help more.

Advocate

Advocacy as a practice strategy has served as a catalyst for nonprofits to respond to factors that impact the services they offer. Community advocacy involves challenging assumptions about vulnerable populations. Negative attitudes and myths, often promoted within communities, influence availability of services for those in needs.
