Hassle your political representatives, educate the public as to why so many of them are in effect turkeys voting for Christmas, go digging and expose the ways the small citizen is relentlessly screwed over by the rich and powerful (and then publicise it, in a way Joe Shmoe can get on board with), volunteer with local homeless charities, turn up at regional council meetings and loudly ask them again and again and again what they're doing to help these people rather than just move then on, interrupt when you hear people being dismissive or stating glibly "they should just learn to code".
