2.    Discuss ways that you have been active as a policymaker or could be active.  (you should discuss ways a registered nurse  can be active as a policymaker and/or ways a future psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner can be active as a policy maker)
 
3.    Discuss examples of advocacy you see in your practice or in the practice of others?  Advocacy in this form does not refer to bedside advocacy on behalf of your patient. This item is specific to policy advocacy such as with your professional organization, with a consortium, etc.
