An Advocate's World - What's It All About, Who's Who and What's What
Being a person with a developmental disability herself gives Marilyn's perspective and first hand experience in being an advocate and a self-advocate at the same time. The bottom line for a person with a developmental disability is if you want to have independence, freedom, flexibility, and some of the better things life has to offer, you have to be willing to step up, get involved with a variety of helpers, agencies, and organizations, or have a family member or friend at your side helping you navigate the various steps and agencies that will help gain your own independence.
