Advocacy Tips

Supporting communities of color and allies to speak up and take action.

Your voice matters. Check out our resources for impactful advocacy strategies.

  • Crafting emails
  • Public comment at meetings (including how to center BIPOC voices)
  • Do’s and Don’ts – Do cite the source if you use wording from others’ policy statements. Don’t commandeer language for groups not covered in the original statements.

Learn more about these tips here, and check out our CIVIC POWER resource library.
