Advocacy to me means standing up for what you feel is right. It can range from getting support from another person to help you express your views and wishes while helping you stand up for your rights. Advocacy means speaking up for things that matter in areas like human rights, saving the environment, healthcare, education, and fairness in society. Many advocates decide to take a stand because they want to see change in the world. I believe that it is always important to take a stand wherever and whenever you can.
