Unlocking Your Inner Advocate: Empowering All to Make a Difference Advocacy is not bound by age, background, or education—it’s about stepping up where you are, with what you have. Whether it’s lending a hand, offering a kind word, or simply asking, “Are you okay?”, anyone can be an advocate. Dr. Ebony Grey reminds us that advocacy starts from the heart. You don’t need to have it all figured out—just a willingness to make a difference where you stand. The power of word-of-mouth and awareness can inspire others to take on this role as well. Together, we can support and uplift survivors by meeting them where they are and empowering them to take their next steps. 🌟 #UnlockYourAdvocate #Empowerment #SupportSurvivors #DrEbonyGrey #MakeADifference #AdvocacyForAll
