District 10 Indivisible for All (DIFA) has two primary missions, we want to make sure that everyone in the Dayton area has full understanding of the impacts of critical legislation at the Federal and State level. In addition, we want to assist you in taking action to make your voice heard on those issues in a way which makes your elected officials take action based on your values. This page is focused on providing simple, easy ways for you to make your voice heard, no matter what your time commitment and abilities are.

What am I good at?
Writing

- Can you writing clearly, authentically, and persuasively on important issues?

- Write an Op-Ed
- Write Call to Action Scripts
Ideas

- We need out-of-the-box ideas for ways to capture people’s attention and make them think about issues in new ways.
- Funny, unusual, compelling ideas can help us plan more engaging events, capture more interest and media, and make our ideas more shareable.
- If this is you, join DIFA’s Creative team, or just send them your idea for a slogan, campaign, or event.
People
