What is a Self-Advocate?
You are a self-advocate if you have ever spoken up for what you believe in, especially if it is up to someone who thinks they know what is best for you or someone who wants to have control over your life.
You are a self-advocate if you have ever questioned people's expectations of you.
You are a self-advocate if you have ever joined a self-advocacy group and believe that the group's work is going to make life better for people with disabilities.
Even if you have never done any of these things, you can become a self-advocate by getting involved, so start today!
