Self-Advocacy Tips for Teenagers

Disability.gov has published a variety of self-advocacy resources for teens that help them begin to express their needs and wants by participating in their Individualized Education Program (IEP) meetings. These meetings assist teens in learning ways to talk about their disability to others, setting goals, and practicing other self-advocacy skills.
