US: A Call to Action from Champions of Change: Democracy is not a Spectator Sport (Opinion)
Chronicle of Social Change – December 19, 2016
For the past five years, the Obama administration has honored more than 1,300 ordinary citizens who drove positive changes every day in their communities with a “Champions of Change,” (COC) award. These award winners came from a broad sector of advocacy and policy reform – foster care, employment, disability, veterans, environment, health care, LGBTQ, technology, homelessness, children of incarcerated parents, arts, education, and much more. On December 5, 2016, about 400 award-winners attended a reunion meeting in Washington D.C.
