Show Notes

Self-advocacy is an often-used term in higher levels of education, community agencies, and medical settings. It describes the commitment to encourage students, clients, and patients to take an active role in communicating their needs and plans. There are aspects of self-advocacy that are inherently challenging to those on the spectrum. Join Dr. Regan to learn ways to make self-advocacy empowering rather than overwhelming for those on the spectrum.
