Advocating for change.
As part of our mission to inspire people, enliven communities and confront injustice, we raise a collective voice to speak up for those who may not be heard.
Raising a voice and restoring community
Uniting for a cause.
At Uniting, we come alongside our consumers, striving to inspire people, enliven communities and confront injustice.
Positive change is possible if we work together. Speaking up and standing as one, we can influence our world and protect our most vulnerable people.
By delivering a strong consumer voice in our advocacy work, we include:
Your voice
Consumers are heard by decision-makers
Your experience
Our advocacy is based on lived experience.
Your choices
Consumers share in the decision making about our advocacy.
