Do you remember when you were working hard on something but couldn’t finish it? Or were you trying to write something but struggling to find the right starting point? You felt like something was missing and couldn’t connect the dots.

How to be an Effective Advocate<\/a><\/h3>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

As defined, an advocate is \u201ca person who publicly supports\u2026 a particular cause\u201d. But to me being an advocate means so much more than that. An advocate is someone who stands up for the things they believe in, even when no one is there to stand beside them. A good advocate is courageous, strong, and wise and is willing to tackle every obstacle with grace.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1649083966577{background-color: #ffffff !important;border-radius: 10px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”178940″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https:\/\/bestbuddiesylcblogs.blogspot.com\/2024\/03\/invisible-disabilities-and-education.html” css=”.vc_custom_1710342118690{margin-right: -15px !important;margin-left: -15px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1710342164443{padding-top: 15px !important;}”]\n

Invisible Disabilities and Education: How to Understand, Support, and Empower Students<\/a><\/h3>\n

What is an \u201cinvisible\u201d or \u201chidden\u201d disability? While some disabilities are more apparent or instantly visible, such as an individual who depends on a wheelchair, others are not. The term \u201cinvisible disabilities\u201d refers to anyone that struggles with unseen symptoms. These can include anything from depression and bi-polar disorder to ADHD and autism spectrum disorder. As a neurodivergent individual with autism spectrum disorder who is also 2e or twice exceptional, I too have a non-visible disability that I live with every day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1649083974320{background-color: #ffffff !important;border-radius: 10px !important;}”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner]
