Welcome to Digital Advocacy! (Digital Advocacy - A Free Training for Social Workers & Advocates)

The popular image of an activist is superhuman, someone who is in the streets one day, and the capital the next, constantly speaking truth to power. This is a very intimidating image.
Fortunately, it does not take a superhuman to make a difference, you simply need the right set of tools. At SPEAK, we are committed to giving you the tools you need to feel effective as an ally and an advocate. We’ve demystified the digital environment to pull out the tools and practices you need to begin your advocacy journey with our Digital Advocacy Training!

Digital Advocacy is a FREE training that will help you use the digital space to your advantage.
In this course, you will create a personal advocacy plan to guide you on your journey. The course also teaches you about four essential digital advocacy activities that will amplify your advocacy efforts! Start Your Journey Now!
