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?
