Description

Self-advocate leadership is expanding in North Carolina. NC?s AIDD Network collaborated toward developing the ?fourth leg? of the Network by recruiting three experienced self-advocate leaders from each agency. These nine leaders established the NC Empowerment Network, charting their own course with resources/support. In another leadership opportunity, MCH Leadership Consortium, self-advocate leaders hone skills alongside graduate students/family advocates. This panel (self-advocate leader, coach, agency representative) offers three perspectives on strategic approaches.
