Advocacy isnโt one-size-fits-all. For students with learning disabilities, it can mean speaking up for themselves, parents navigating IEPs or 504 plans, teachers stepping in to support, or communities working for broader change. In this session, weโll discuss the various ways advocacy is present in the learning disabilities community, its connection to leadership, and its significance. Youโll come away with practical ideas about what type of advocacy fits your situation and how families, educators, and allies can work together to make schools and communities stronger.
