What We Do
ADVOCACY SUPPORT
Advocacy seeks to ensure that all people in society are able to:

An advocate from UARU will help you:

- Provide information to help you make informed decisions.
- Help you contact relevant people, or contact them on your behalf.
- Accompany you and support in meetings or appointments.
