Advocacy and Facebook

I was reading our Advocacy article for this week and came across a section about the use of Facebook. They suggested that if you are advocating for something, you should create a facebook page. This didn't occur to me because as someone who got a facebook when it was first beginning to get popular, I think of it as a socializing tool. But when I thought about it some more, this makes a lot of sense. If you are advocating for something concerning education, the way to get students involved is to use facebook. And, even if you need the adults, so many of them are now using the tool. People check it all the time and so it would be a great way to get your information out.
