She shares how people can come together to create transformational change in the world. I have seen her put these lessons into action as an advocate for the global humanitarian organization CARE and I know, first-hand, that she perfectly embodies the values and the lessons of this terrific book." Michelle Nunn; President and CEO of CARE "Since I first moved to Washington, D.C., thirty years ago, by far the most important thing I've learned is the power of passionate, committed advocates to effect change. Not paid lobbyists, not PR firms-but thoughtful, informed constituents who move their members of Congress into action. Any skeptic of that view should meet Cynthia Changyit Levin. Congressional staff and members of Congress know Cynthia by name and by reputation. And now she's sharing what she's learned to help others experience their power to shape political decisions-at a time when this has never been more important."

Cynthia Changyit Levin has been a powerful advocate for ONE. Her voice has helped create meaningful change as we fight for the investments needed to promote economic opportunities and healthier lives. In Advocacy Made Easy , she teaches others how to most effectively engage in meaningful advocacy actions to make sure members of Congress hear from those they represent." Ndidi Okonkwo Nwuneli; President and CEO of The ONE Campaign "With so many Americans asking, 'What can I do?' Cynthia Changyit Levin's book Advocacy Made Easy couldn't have come at a better time. Read it and rejoice-and then get into action." Sam Daley-Harris; Founder, RESULTS and Civic Courage; Author, Reclaiming Our Democracy "If we assume that the policy advocacy needed to eliminate poverty, arrest climate change, and accomplish other urgent and worthy goals must be done by experts who can devote their entire lives to this work, we're sunk as a country and as a civilization. Empowering citizens to roll up their sleeves, learn the issues, and speak up for crucial policy changes is our only hope. Demystifying activism has never been more important, and Levin gets the job done brilliantly."
