Randal it is easy to advocate for people with mental illnesses. The most important thing to remember is just to be yourself. The second is to get invovled with people that are interested in advocating. Then one of the most important things is yes be passionate but make sure that when you do advocate try not to allow your emotions to overcome what you are trying to do. and the last thing is that you advocate everyday and every level just by being yourself and letting people see that you don't act like the stigma( that is only if you have a mental illness). Well Good Luck in advocating if you would like to talk more my address is randpierce@yahoo.com
