Advocacy
The Independent Living Movement was founded by individuals with disabilities who promoted their civil rights by means of intense and dedicated communication with local, state, and national stakeholders . Advocacy is about effectively communicating your desires and protecting your rights. AccessAbility facilitates and promotes self-advocacy, individual advocacy, and community and systems advocacy. Whether it is done individually or with others, advocacy leads to problem solving, removing barriers, increasing quality of life, creating innovative programs, and influencing the decisions of your public policy makers, which leads to a better quality of life.
