We build our leadership competence and become better advocates when we have opportunities to learn from others. Best practices used by some NAMI state leaders can serve as templates for other advocates. Members of NAMI's State Advocacy 2010 Advisory Group offer samples of their work to highlight components of some of their own successful efforts.
