Ep. 80 Self-advocacy for invisible disabilities.
Manage episode 425709973 series 3560042
I’ve said it before. K-12 does a horrible job of teaching self-advocacy. I find it tragic and neglectful that it’s not taught. A ton of people advocate for it, emphasize it, and even set goals for it. But they all get it wrong. What’s the best way to teach it and what do you need to do for your student to learn to self-advocate?
Here are eight episodes that focus all on self-advocacy for students with ADHD, learning disabilites like dyslexia, and mental health conditions. If you're new to self-advocacy, these episodes will be a great primer for developing this in your student.
Self-advocacy all starts with self-awareness and builds from there. I've siad it before and will contonue sating it. You cannot advocate from a position of ignornace. As your student builds thier awareness of their disability and how it affects them, thier knowledge increases as does thier ability and confidence to speak about it.
