Self-Advocacy.blog is dedicated to advancing self-advocacy and self-determination. Self-advocacy is the civil rights movement of people with developmental disabilities run by people with disabilities. Its goal is to promote the attainment of individual wants, needs, hopes, and dreams. More than that, it strives to achieve systematic change for people with developmental disabilities, so we may fulfill our potential living in our communities. That includes housing, education, employment, transportation, community integration, and relationships. I will strive to make regular postings to this blog to keep it current and you informed.
