Come and learn about the advocacy goal, what advocacy means in the context of your life and work and share what you would like to learn to be the best advocate you can be.
This forum is encouraged for every person supported by St.Amant, their families, and all staff and volunteers. To RSVP for free or for more information please email kkircher@stamant.ca.
