Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Advocacy is when you speak up for yourself or someone else. There are different ways to do this. There’s self-advocacy, which means speaking up for your own rights and giving your own views about things.

There’s One 2 One Advocacy, which means supporting someone else to speak up for themselves or speaking up on someone else’s behalf by finding out their views about things and then passing it on to someone (for example a police officer if an advocate is speaking up for someone who’s a witness or victim of crime).

There’s peer advocacy, which means spending time with other people and finding out their views about things and then speaking up for them to people who can make things happen.

An advocate can support someone on many issues – things such as housing, different kinds of relationships and health issues.
