Self-Advocacy

Self-advocacy is using your power to advocate for yourself and to educate others to do the same. If you want to grow as a self-advocate, The Arc Minnesota can help. We have lots of ways for you to get involved, including:

  • Join a committee
  • Be on a panel
  • Lead a training
  • Share your story

It doesn’t matter how much you know about self-advocacy. We welcome you to learn, grow, and make a difference.
