  • I have actually enjoyed blogging and I have also enjoyed using my facebook page to let my friends and family l know exactly whats going on with me and what I believe and it gives them a opportunity to respond and give their input.
    • Concerns, challenges, and/or excitement you are feeling about presenting and implementing your Advocacy Action Plan
  • I am nerveous about presenting because I have invited peole that I think can make a change and therefore I see them as people I look up to.
