How can you use your freedoms to support the positive advancement of specific causes and to represent the concern of others within a system (i.e., advocacy) and/or to bring about social and political change outside of systems (i.e., activism)?
Come and hear from Wheaton community members who are successfully engaged in advocacy and activism work on and off campus. Topics for this conversation will include:

different approaches for effective advocacy and activism
leadership skills for advocacy and activist work
opportunities to engage in advocacy and activism work as a student

Refreshments immediately following this event in Wooley Room.
