“I work for the Advocacy Center because we help those who are less fortunate and who may not understand legal process. The Advocacy Center has a strong history of turning around situations for Charlotte residents in need who may otherwise not be able to see themselves through. I am rewarded by being a part of a process that matters and can potentially change lives.“
