UCSA Advocates Council meets once a month and brings together young adults, college and high school age current participants and past alumni from all over San Antonio.

Representatives from different religious, ethnic and cultural backgrounds come together to learn about themselves and each other through a variety of dialogues and activities. 

By bringing them together, they will continue to develop a common understanding of the diverse differences of our community, therefore instilling a sense of self-worth and respect for individual and group differences.
