Secure Families Initiative with Brandi Jones

Brandi Jones joins the Amateur Activist this week to talk about Secure Families Initiative - the work they do, the importance of advocating for military spouses & family and why their experiences are important to listen to. As the Organising Director, Brandi establishes the vision, systems and strategies for SFI. She oversees grassroots programs, international campaigns and coordinates across departments to ensure that the values & experiences of their members are heard & uplifted. 

In this episode, Isabela and Brandi talk about the goals & mission of SFI, why it’s important to civilians to prioritise these issues, the different ways SFI advocated for military familes on The Hill, and how listeners can get involved.

As always, we are so grateful for everyone who listens and shares. When you get a moment, we'd be so grateful if you left a review on Apple Podcasts, rated us on Spotify, or tagged us in your stories on Instagram, @amateuractivistpod
