Description

As emerging leaders, LEND family and self-advocate disciplines are uniquely placed to understand the needs of families and individuals with neurodevelopmental disabilities and create change. As part of their LEND capstone projects, these trainees created a product to provide resources and improve access to individuals in New Mexico. Supporting and mentoring all trainees is critical, but family members and self-advocates may require additional mentorship in realizing their plans.
