SUMMARY:“Basic Advocacy! How to Advocate for what your Kids Need!”
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to being a good advocate? Many parents and caregivers have faced challenges in getting their child’s behavioral health and education needs met. Having your heart in the right place is very important\, but is only the beginning. Learning to communicate and advocate effectively with service providers\, doctors and teachers is one of the best ways to ensure that your child’s needs are being met. It is also important to know that the advocacy process doesn’t need to be confrontational. You can have ongoing\, collaborative and constructive relationships with others. Developing your advocacy skills is the next step to forming your own strategies about how to solve problems\, resolve conflicts and become a more effective advocate. \nAbout the G.E.A.R.
