I really don't have any questions or concerns at this point in the assignment. I feel that I have everything in place.
I am however, looking for a resource with free stuff such as books or anything else that could be used for early literacy. This is something that I would like to give each child who participates in the family read night.
The resources that I have found that have been insightful has been the family fun website (www.familyfun.com) www.earlymoments.com, www.scholastic.com and www.naccrra.org. These websites had some good articles that I was able to use to prepare for my fact sheet.

What inspires me about being an advocate is that I can change the way parents spend time with their child. My plan may make it more beneficial for them once they see and hear why they should spend time with their child.
The challenges I feel related to engaging in my advocacy effort is, will the parents take this seriously or will they just toss it a side like everything else they read. I have a feeling that half of the parents may take it seriously and half will not. The half that will not are the ones that need to take it seriously. This will be a challenge to get them to see the importance.
I believe the most effective way to overcome my challenge will be in the way my advocacy plan is presented and executed. If I make it eye catching and the parents and the child get something in return, it may make it more interesting or inviting for them.
I can encourage others in their advocacy efforts by telling them to never give up, your voice will eventually be heard.
I liked this quote that I found:
"Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world...would do this, it would change the earth."
William Faulkner
