Write a letter to the editor
The "letters-to-the-editor" page is a great place to educate the public about our cause, being a widely-read part of any newspaper. Also, letters help the editors decide which topics to cover in future news stories or editorials, and elected officials monitor this section, along with the editorial page, to gauge local opinion.
Find your newspaper and contact info

Getting your letter published: Check the newspaper's guidelines. They may prefer that a letter be emailed, require a phone number so they can confirm your identity, and have a word limit. So keep it short, unless you know that the editor will print a longer version.

Although not required, it's a good idea to address the letter to recent news story, another letter in a previous edition, or an event in your area.

Our News page features letters that have been published.

Online posts: Some newspapers have comments enabled for their online articles. Commenters can respond to the article and also to previous commenters' posts. Remarks dismissing public campaigns can quickly be rebutted. Be respectful — no flaming!

Newspapers provide a space, often opposite the editorial page (hence the name) for persons not associated with the newspaper to express their opinions. Newspapers have limits to the length of such an article (usually in the neighborhood of 600 words) so check with them before submitting your article.
