RESULTS
http://www.results.org
RESULTS is a movement of passionate, committed everyday people. Together we use our voices to influence political decisions that will bring an end to poverty. Volunteers receive training, support, and inspiration to become skilled advocates. In time, volunteers learn to effectively advise policy makers, guiding them towards decisions that improve access to education, health, and economic opportunity. With every hour of their time, volunteers multiply their impact through the enormous power of advocacy — whether it’s helping change policy to support millions of families putting food on the table or helping raise billions of dollars for the world’s most vulnerable children. Backed by the in-depth research and legislative expertise of staff, RESULTS advocates realize the incredible power they possess to use their voices to change the world.
RESULTS Advocates are passionate about ending poverty and willing to raise their voice to improve health, education, and economic opportunity in the United States and globally. RESULTS volunteers build relationships with policy makers, effectively advising them on problems and solutions of poverty. Practically that means: meeting face to face with members of Congress and their staff, regularly communicating with congressional offices, publishing media in the local newspaper, and engaging the broader community in education and action. Volunteers receive in-depth training and support from RESULTS staff and leaders.
