Citizen Advocate connects you with a full-time advocate who represents your community to local and state government. Paid, accountable to you.
Get RepresentedLaunching in Denton, TX — Summer 2026
In 1913, the U.S. capped the House of Representatives at 435 members. The population has tripled since then. Each representative now speaks for over 760,000 people — and that's just at the federal level.
Local government faces the same math. Thousands of decisions, limited bandwidth, and no shortage of organized groups ready to fill the vacuum. Individual citizens rarely have the time — or the access.
Your neighbors have the same problem. Citizen Advocate is here to change that.
Browse available advocates in your area and choose the one whose background and focus match what you care about. Pay a monthly fee to get started.
They attend council meetings, track legislation, and bring your group's priorities directly to elected officials — in writing, in person, on the record.
Regular updates on what your advocate did, what officials said, and what's coming next — no political noise, just your issues.
Citizen Advocate is nonpartisan by design — not because we're avoiding a fight, but because the problem we're solving isn't a partisan one. The representation gap affects conservatives in rural counties and progressives in urban neighborhoods equally.
Your advocate doesn't push an agenda. They push your agenda — whatever your community has agreed it cares about. Zoning. Water. School budgets. Road conditions. The issues that actually affect daily life.
Government works better when more people are in the room. We're putting you there.
Local journalists are doing their best in a difficult environment. Elected officials are juggling more constituents than any one person can meaningfully serve. Neither group is the problem — the structure is.
Right now, most information flows one direction: from government and media outward to you. There's no reliable, full-time channel for your community's concerns to flow back. Not because anyone is blocking it — just because no one is paid to carry it.
A citizen advocate fills that gap. Paid directly by constituents, their job is to listen to what your community cares about, bring it to the right people, and report back what happened. They work alongside journalists and officials — not against them.
More voices in the room is a good thing for everyone.
Whether you want representation or want to provide it, there's a place for you here.
