We are a community that champions the values of self-government. These include voluntary association, personal responsibility and neighborly assistance. Our VISION is: A world of self-governing people living in a condition of happiness, harmony and prosperity. Those who advocate for self-government reject the initiation of force as a means of solving social problems. Instead, we promote a social and political philosophy that promises greater public safety, smarter regulation, and more compassionate welfare. That political philosophy replaces coercion with persuasion and violent state power with systems of free association. Everything we do is driven by our MISSION: To equip people to understand, embrace, and advocate the values of self-government. The Advocates for Self-Government's focus is unique. Libertarians in many different organizations use our products, programs and services. The Advocates combines years of activism experience with the newest advances in technology, psychology, and communications to expose millions to the ideas of liberty and equip the Liberty Movement with the tools to change the world. We believe liberty is the best way to achieve peace and prosperity. And the best way to achieve liberty is by effectively communicating the ideas of entrepreneurship, limited government, civil liberties, and individual responsibility to the public.
