Abstract

Advocacy for people with disabilities and their families has evolved from the provision of public protective services to private and independent advocacy service groups, and finally to self-advocacy. This article describes one empowerment and self-advocacy training program for parents of young children and individuals with disabilities. An overview of the Partners in Policymaking program and the participants is provided along with Year 1 outcomes. The benefits of self-advocacy and the need for additional training programs are stressed.
