    We need to advocate for issues and policy changes all year round and with all different types of audiences to be effective. Knowing what we are advocating for and how it will impact future students makes the fight worthwhile. We need resources on hand for families in need, which might also benefit us as much as the families in our care.

    Critical Thinking Questions
    • What is one advocacy effort that you are very passionate about and why?
      • If you don’t have one yet, research the grassroots efforts for a disability topic that interests you.
    • Find a resource (article, podcast, video) that can be a benefit to both families and educators.
    • Do you know the best way to locate resources in your area?
