Nate
This
group means a lot to me because it teaches me how to get around on my own
and meet new people.
It will also help me get a job.
I want to be able to speak for myself and for everyone, too.

Tara
Self-Advocacy
means speaking up for ourselves and meeting new people.
I speak-up for myself
by
telling people not to push me around.
I enjoy
meeting new people and getting to know everyone.

Olivia
I
come to these meetings to meet new people and to learn about
everyone else.
What it means is to talk up for myself.
Sometimes when I am having a hard time or, when bullies make fun of
me, I tell them how I feel.

I
come to these meetings to
meet people and talk for myself so that people can know about me.
Here, I talk about myself so I can stand-up for myself so other
people don’t talk for me.

Rachel
I
go to these meetings because I really don't know how to stick-up for
myself and going to these meetings gives me a chance to do that.
Every time I go to one of these meetings, I spread my wings a little bit
further and now I feel that I don't have to be scared to stick-up for
myself because I know with the great friends I've got, anything's
possible. I just got to believe, that's all.

Tracy
I
started the Relationship Group for my senior project.
I wanted to do this because other people need to learn how to speak
up for themselves and each other.
