Self Advocacy Groups, like Texas Advocates and the Local Texas Chapters, are groups of people with disabilities who get together and talk about what’s important to them. Members of self advocacy groups speak out for themselves and others. They attend conferences and talk to other people with disabilities about things like: voting, self advocacy, self determination, employment, and housing. They visit the Capitol and educate people about what’s important to them. Members of self advocacy groups support each other in living the life they want to live. They have fun together!
