Course 01

'Your Plan, Your Power' Self Advocacy Course

Students with IEPs and 504 plans are entitled to supports; but research consistently shows that students who understand and can articulate their own accommodations are far more likely to use them effectively.
This course bridges that gap. Students will: 
  • Gain a practical understanding of what IEP and 504 accommodations actually mean
  • Learn how to identify which supports work best for them 
  • Learn how to communicate their needs to educators with clarity and confidence
Participants leave with a personalized self-advocacy script, multiple strategies for making accommodation requests across different settings, and a clear plan of action if a request is denied.


Supports: confidence and embracing their disability and accommodation.  Promotes collaborative efforts in implementation.
Course 02
