About > Focus Areas > Self-Advocacy
People with intellectual and developmental disabilities have unique voices and perspectives that deserve to be heard and respected. That's why we are dedicated to empowering people to express their needs, aspirations, and concerns. We provide resources, support, and a platform for self-advocates to be heard and advocate for their rights.
Through collaboration, education, and active engagement, our goal is to make a positive impact on the lives of the people we serve by creating an environment where everyone's voice is valued and respected.
