LearningBytes® Being An Ally

Anyone can be an ally. If you are willing to be supportive of an individual who’s being unfairly treated, then you are an ally. Some people are allies in small ways and some in big ways. Like a pebble thrown into water, you are creating a ripple-effect of change starting with just one action.

When being an ally, keep in mind that: an ally does not come with ready-made answers, allies are not counselors, allies can support with big gestures or a helping hand. They help in any way they feel comfortable.
