Facebook Causes: Do you have a birthday coming up? Instead of just writing on your wall, or giving you something you don't need, why not give your friends the opportunity to help a cause you believe in? Well, you can do just that (and help support the A.A.A.) with Facebook's new Birthday Cause!

If you are a member of a Facebook Cause you can also create a "fundraising pledge" where you can create a personal page and pledge to raise funds from your friends and family to support A.A.A.. Get started today!

There are many different ways to be an active part of change for Juveniles in the Judicial System, Advocacy has many available tools.
EMAIL CONGRESS -
All Americans should be in contact with their elected officials. This directory makes it easy. Most Congress folks now use web forms as their primary contact method. They often will only be responsive if you demonstrate that you are one of their constituents. So be sure to include your snail mail address in your correspondence.

Call Your Elected Officials -

You can call your Members of Congress and ask to be connected to the office of your Representative or your Senators. (Don't know who they are? Find out here.). Once you are connected to the right office, ask to speak to the staff member who works on juvenile justice issues. Clearly have in mind a specific request of your representative.

Write an Op-Ed -

An op-ed is an opinion piece written by a regular reader, representative of a group or cause, or an elected official who is not an employee of the newspaper. Op-eds are a great advocacy tool and a way to raise awareness about children's issues—if placed, they are read by decision makers, opinion leaders and fellow citizens.





Together we can do better!!
