Advocate

An advocate is someone who helps you or speaks up for you when you need it. They can help you with things like getting what you need at school, like extra help or special equipment, or in other places like the doctor's office or when talking with the police. An advocate is like a superhero who uses their powers to help people who need it the most. They can be a friend, family member, or someone you don’t even know yet. Either way, their job is to make sure you have what you need and to make sure your voice is heard.
