🧰 Spotlight: Advocacy Groups by Issue
When everything feels urgent, it helps to know where to focus.
Many people care deeply about what’s happening right now — but aren’t always sure where to put their energy. Acting alone can feel overwhelming. Acting everywhere at once is unsustainable. Reacting only to headlines rarely leads to lasting change.
And with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day approaching, many people are also thinking about service, justice, and how to contribute in ways that last beyond a single day.
That’s why advocacy groups matter. They help turn concern into coordinated action.
To make that easier, I’ve created a central resource that organizes advocacy organizations by issue area, so you can start where your interests and values already are.
Where passion meets purpose — and information becomes action:

What this resource does
This Advocacy Groups by Issue page is designed to be practical and usable — not overwhelming. It:
Organizes more than 60 credible advocacy organizations by major issue areas
Highlights groups that offer meaningful ways to get involved, beyond donations
Makes it easier to choose one place to start, instead of trying to do everything
You don’t need to agree with every group listed. You don’t need to join more than one. And you don’t need to decide everything at once.
How to use it
Think of this as a starting point, not a checklist.
A simple way to begin:
Pick one issue that matters most to you right now.
Read through a few organizations working in that space.
Choose one group to follow, learn from, or support.
That’s enough for today.
Over time, small, informed steps — taken alongside others — add up.
