It's easy to spread the word! Here are a few things you can do:
1. Change your email signature
You can spread awareness to everyone that receives an email from you by changing your email signature to show support for TLC. Read this PDF for instructions on how to change your email signature to help support TLC's mission.
2. Distribute TLC Brochures in your community
Order TLC Educational Brochures and mail or deliver them to libraries, doctor's offices, salons,
health centers or student unions within your community. This can be a
great way to participate anonymously.Â
