Resident Advocate What does it mean to be a resident advocate? This is an opportunity for residents to come together to find solutions for support, education and independence by helping each other in our own community. Perhaps you have a special talent you could share with others. Maybe you need to find ways to stretch your dollars to the end of the month. You may have some great ideas that could help your area, or you may simply want to learn more about your neighborhood and the community you live in. This is just some of what being a resident advocate is about. The council is also looking for resident advocates at each housing site. Please call Sammie at (931) 526-9793, ext. 224, today to learn how you can get involved.
