Inspired by the Relief Society motto “Charity Never Faileth” and urged by LDS leaders, WAVE encourages Latter-day Saint women to apply our education, skills and talents to address social issues faced by our sisters and brothers throughout the world.

WAVE Social Justice Advocacy Efforts:

• Invite LDS women to share and engage in advocacy opportunities that aim to protect our world, our children, our families, our neighbors and our sisters in our local communities.
• Extend compassionate and thinking service to those who are affected by poverty, war and injustice throughout the world.
• Provides a platform for WAVErs to share their advocacy efforts with others.
• Encourage WAVErs to become engaged and interested in public policies that affect individual women and families.

Are you engaged in working on a humanitarian or social cause? What social problems are you most concerned about? Are there issues you are concerned about and want to know where to start in addressing them?

Please share your efforts and desires to serve in the comments or submit your ideas to ldswavenews@gmail.com. WAVE will post advocacy opportunities as they are received.

Remember that there is a diversity of thought among our LDS sisters and to be respectful of differing opinions regarding social issues and public policy. WAVE does not have a political platform or take a stance on the issues posted or shared, but merely offers the opportunities for individuals to work together and be actively engaged in civil discourse.
