This online class will be discussing a very important skill for success, Self-Advocacy! Learning the skill of Self-Advocacy gives us the ability to speak up for ourselves, find out what we like and dislike, learning how to get information on activities we enjoy, knowing our rights, finding support, learning about self-determination and much more! It is an important part of our ability to be as independent as possible (Woohoo!). 

In this class we will discuss and go deep into the understanding of what Self Advocacy truly is. Students will be able to:
  • Speak up for themselves
  • Become self-aware
  • Understand their needs and how to communicate them
  • Discover and express their goals and ambitions 
  • Learn to problem solve 
  • Find ways to get information on activities they enjoy
There is so much that we can learn about ourselves through Self-Advocacy and apply to our lives. Hopefully I get to see you all this semester and we can learn together!
