Civic Engagement
I used to think that complaining about politics was involvement enough. And then, 3 years ago, I became an advocate for immigrant rights. By building coalitions and being persistent, we were able to change an entrenched policy in Los Angeles that was having a devastating financial impact on low-income families. Now I feel like a real citizen.
