Community Advocacy for Development 11

Community advocates are those individuals that have an interest in the development and redevelopment of a community. The local community advocates are resident living in the community and are concerned about the welfare of the community. These individuals are not only concerned, they are active. As a matter of fact, some professionals call them community activist.

They know where the problems areas are and have a good understanding of the improvement activities that are needed.
