Advocates Programs


Lights of Liberty

Our Awards program encourages libertarians to take the ideas of liberty to the public, through letters to the editor, public speaking, and OPH booth activism. Each year, Lights of Liberty winners generate millions of positive exposures to libertarian ideas. Lights of Liberty rewards and encourages the kinds of essential grassroots activism needed to build a mass movement for liberty.

The World's Smallest Political Quiz

The Advocates is the creator and distributor of the world-famous World's Smallest Political Quiz. We've distributed over 7 million card-stock copies of this amazing, eye-opening tool. Over 7.7 million people have taken the Quiz online. Found in newspapers, textbooks, classrooms, thousands of Web sites, and just about everywhere else!

Operation Politically Homeless

(Or OPH) is our unique "event in a kit" that transforms an ordinary outreach booth into a exciting, crowd-drawing event. OPH lets just two or more libertarians discover dozens or even hundreds of libertarian-leaning folk wherever people are gathered. Every year thousands of Americans learn about liberty face-to-face through OPH. 

Internet Outreach

Every day our Web site receives thousands of visits from people interested in liberty -- whether devoted activists or just those curious to learn more about liberty.  It’s home to vital libertarian resources: libertarian talk radio links, free newsletters, hundreds of articles, libertarian celebrities, an online catalog, links to major libertarian organizations… and much more. Top reviewers -- such as MSNBC, Yahoo!, and Lycos -- regularly list us among the best political sites on the Web.

Now we have a Web site designed specifically to be an introduction to libertarianism -- great for people who have just heard of libertarianism and want to know more, for educators who want to teach their students about liberty, for libertarians to send their friends and family members who are curious  -- or for anyone who has a question about libertarianism. You'll find definitions, FAQs, links, short descriptions, and much more -- an invaluable resource! Please check out Libertarianism.com today!
