Self Advocates Council graphic recording.

At this year’s Self-Advocates Council Annual meeting  they talked about goals for the coming year. Pictures were drawn to remind everyone what they talked about so that everyone could follow along.

The goals section shows pictures of a TTC symbol, because people want to talk about travelling safely on the TTC. There is a picture of a brain as people want to talk about mental health and intellectual disability.  People also want to talk about conflict resolution, teaching family members about the rights of  persons with disabilities, and working with peers. It will be an exciting year!

The Self –Advocates Council and friends gather in front of pictures of this year’s Sam Samler award winner, Doug Crellin and last year’s winner, Mike Esder

Please reach out and join us for future meetings. We are taking a break over the summer, and will meet again the third Wednesday of every month starting in September.
