If you are concerned about something and you think other people share your point of view, you can do many different things to gather support for your idea. For example, a petition is a powerful tool for a community. It lets decision-makers know that a lot of people are concerned about a particular issue. It asks them to take action to bring about change. You can use a petition to create change in your community, in your school, or at the Band Council level. This section of our website introduces you to some excellent resources for creating change in your community!
