Listen Later

Many differently wired children grow up feeling like what they want or need doesn't matter. Let's change that! But how? A step in the right direction is self-advocacy:) Teaching them to advocate for themselves has many benefits, including improving self-awareness, decreasing depression, and anxiety, promoting communication, building community resources, increasing social-emotional skills, and enhancing motivation.

In this important podcast episode, Dr. Tara Regan and I chat about choice. routines, 504 and IEP participation, pursuing passions, masking, isolation prevention, and post-secondary goals. REMEMBER - It's NEVER too early to teach your child, student or client to self-advocate:) LISTEN for simple strategies that you can start using today!  ❤️
