“Legally Blonde 2,” “Patch Adams,” or others where someone felt

worked to effect change. What cause might you take on?)

What role do you see yourself taking in this cause?
How will you mobilize others to help you?
Where will you obtain funding for your cause?
What coalitions, local and state, would you contact who might support
you in your cause?
What governmental policies would you need to have changed?
What specific skills or tools would you need to develop in order to
accomplish your goals?
What would be your best approach to this particular problem?
What government agencies or representatives would you need to
approach? (Research and name specific members of government who
might support you in your legislative district.)
What roadblocks or challenges might you anticipate that might hinder
your success or progress?
