25 YEARS AGO, the cofounder of a new nonprofit asked for a training program to help women with heart disease tell their stories and save lives.

From that request grew The LPA Method of Storytelling-for-Advocacy—one that is grounded in research and shaped by the real-world experience of hundreds of advocates.

This October we’re marking 25 years of the LPA Method by celebrating the organizations and individuals that contributed to its development and who keep it active around the world.

“People who go through the program are just more thoughtful about their advocacy. I can see the change in the advocates from week to week.”

Andrea Ronan, Fanconi Cancer Foundation
"The LPA method taught me that the real power of advocacy lies not in what you demand, but in how you invite others to share in your cause. LPA didn't just change my approach — it changed the way I view the power of storytelling itself.”

John Mwangi, PDRO-Kenya
"We used LPA concepts, exercises and worksheets ... to help participants explore, develop and fine-tune their stories for a public showcase. At the showcase, the energy in the room was felt by everyone. It was buzzing. "
