My name is Stephanie Vance, and I spent 10 years working on Capitol Hill for three different members of Congress. When I left in 2000, I started a business helping people be effective advocates with their elected officials. I've worked with groups like the Humane Society of the United States, the American Library Association, and the National Alliance of Public Transportation Advocates.


I'm providing free excerpts, templates, etc. from one of my books on effective advocacy. I swear these resources are free. No click bait or anything like that! If you want to buy the book, no one's going to stop you. But you should have enough resources here to make a difference in these challenging times.


Keep Fighting the Good Fight! Please!
