Summary
Module 3 has taught you what types of accommodations you can receive and how to get them. Now that you are responsible for arranging accommodations and requesting services, this also means that you must advocate for yourself with confidence, about the services and supports you require for your success.
Self-Advocacy can be a new experience and even seem like a bit of scary process, but Module 4 will help guide you how to do this. Module 8 will also show you how you can reduce your stress while practicing the skill of being a self-advocate as a post-secondary student.
