Do you have an issue you’re concerned about but are frustrated trying to make your voice heard by elected officials, administrators or the public?


To help address this need, the League of Women Voters of the Columbia Area (Columbia, SC) conducted "Effective Advocacy Training" for its members on Sept. 16, 2023 at the Girl Scouts Leadership Center in Columbia.  The goal was to equip members with advocacy resources and tools that would help them feel more empowered to take action in support of their causes -- either as an individual or in a group, as we collectively strive to Make Democracy Work! 


This website consists of handouts and video clips of the advocacy experts who participated in this advocacy training. It is arranged by topic (see drop down menu in upper left) which may be may be explored as needed and in no particular order.
