About the Network
People with IDD have valuable lived experience. They should work on projects about their lives. Most project staff want to work with people with IDD. But finding each other and working well together is hard. The Self-Advocate Network can help. We teach people with IDD and project staff to work together. We help them connect to do amazing things!
