Research Abstract |
When young people with LD, ADHD and/or ASD begin to acquire self-advocacy skills, teachers should be aware of the students psychological state and support them as they increase their self-understanding of their disabilities. Based on literature reviews, observations, interviews and case studies, it is important to teach students who may support them and how to ask for help. It is also very important that students experience success. Furthermore, support providers should understand students' disabilities before introducing a self-advocacy skill program.
