Self-Advocacy Meetings What are they?

Two times each month Milieu hosts a Self-Advocacy meeting to help you learn more about your rights and responsibilities, as well as how to improve your life skills and independence. 

There are three self-advocacy groups; a Milieu Adult, a Community Adult, and a Youth.
