The Huron County Board of Developmental Disabilities has an active group of self advocates working to give individuals with developmental disabilities the opportunity to make decisions on their own behalf.
The group has named itself The AC Club, which stands for Advocating for Change.
Self advocacy is a relatively new phenomenon in the world of developmental disabilities. However, it is one that is quickly gaining in popularity and support.
When given the opportunity to make decisions on their own behalf, individuals with developmental disabilities respond by showing a level of confidence and self-responsibility that was previously believed to be unachievable.
There are more than 40 individuals with developmental disabilities in the self advocacy group.
Huron County is a member of the Ohio Self Determination Association.
