HSABC Webinar: Advocacy in Practice
March 3, 2022, 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM
Advocacy 101- how to avoid burnout, how to keep at it ( pass the 2-year hump), philosophy, how to work with difficult clients that really need help, how to do well within an agency, how to say no to a client, getting to the heart of the issue.
Paul Legace- is the coordinator and poverty law advocate at the Prince Rupert Unemployment Action Centre. Paul also has extensive experience with the Manufactured Home Parks Tenancy Act, as he advised on and contributed to the writing of the act. We’ve had a ton of questions from front line workers and housing advocates on the topic of tenancy and how it applies to smaller cities and towns, as there are different skills and resources available, and this is Paul’s specialty, as he’s always worked in rural and remote communities.
