What resonates with me about early childhood public policy and advocacy.

We are finally at the point in our journey that we are in our specialization courses. We only have three more courses to take and then we are Graduate Students. For my degree I have chosen to go in the specialization of Public Policy and Advocacy. The reason I have chosen this path is because of what I want to do with my degree. I would love to work for the Department of Education to make education better for everyone. I would also like to help stop child abuse and get signs out to all teachers out there. With that being said that is what I chose Public Policy and Advocacy because those jobs relate directly to the degree.  
Everyone can be an advocate but only a few have the passion for it. I want to advocate for the children and families that are not able to advocate for themselves. Advocate are so important because they are the ones that can change something bad in to good. If you want to be a good advocate you need to know everything about what you are advocating. 
For this specialization it is hard to come up with only three goals. I want to learn as much as possible so I can help change the world. I know I will not do it alone or even change the whole world but if I can change one aspect of anything that is one step closer then we are now. So my goals are going to be broad.
Goal one: To become a better advocate.
Goal two: To learn about all the policy pertaining to education.
Goal three: To teach others about public policy and how to become a better advocate. 

Good luck in your courses we are in the home stretch to graduation.
