This is part of the advocacy series that we’ve been collaborating on with
the Harry Potter Alliance, to help young and new advocates to take
their first steps toward
becoming advocates. The video went live at National Library Legislative
Day and the response thus far has been positive.
This would be great to show to your Teen Advisory Boards or any adult that needs a refresher. More will be added as they are released.
"Host Jackson Bird tackles the age old question – “So, just what does
Congress do, anyway?” as part of the first in an eight-part video
series. Over the next few weeks, we’ll talk about why advocacy is
important, and how you can get started on a campaign of your own."
