Advocacy Messages

Fatherhood Initiative Public Service Announcement



This public service announcement was inspiring to me because it demonstrates that the "smallest moments make the biggest impact" and that it "takes a man to be a dad".  So often society forgets what an enormous impact fathers have on our children and their growth and development.

 
Autism Awareness Public Service Announcement



This public service announcement on Autism drives home the fact that Autism affects 1 in 110 children and puts it in perspective.  It also shows that Autism affects anyone, regardless of race, gender, socioeconomic status, religion, and is a global issue that affects all of us.

Literacy Awareness Public Service Announcement


This is a public service announcement from the Library of Congress and I find it inspiring because it shows how literacy can open our minds and hearts.  Books open the door to imagination, new worlds, and endless possibilities.

    Toni,
    Of your choices the message that speaks the most to me is that of fatherhood. Father's do have tremendous role in the lives of children. I think that this is a very powerful message.

    Toni,
    Thank God for Fathers. We need more commercials on Fatherhood because I believe that boys behave better when they have a male figure in their lives. Children learn by examples not by what we say.
