Short Preview

Post Self Advocacy Conference Review (Virtual Meeting)

It was definitely an experience that I know will not be forgotten--I truly loved being a part of this self advocacy conference planning committee and sharing my input on what we wanted to do for our virtual event. I really enjoyed getting to work alongside some outstanding people in the disability community-- and learning from one another was a dream come true!!! 


The entire conference itself was an incredible opportunity for me and my friends to see what we worked immensely hard on for months come altogether. I really liked getting to participate and learn new ways with improving my self advocacy skills from the best of the best in our state!!! 



Official Certificate: (Coming Soon)

This certification will arrive in the mail box at some point in time and I am very much grateful for the opportunity of being able to share my ideas on what we wanted to do for the event. It was truly a great privilege for me to get to know other people a little bit more and genuinely appreciate who they are. It never ceases to amaze me when I get opportunities like this and they do not come around too often but when it does, I never want to pass it up!!! 


2021 Virtual NINJA Conference (Last Zoom Edition)


This disability conference has been a part of my life for six years and counting-- (which if you ask me now it is certainly hopefully gonna be an event to remember.) I am feeling slightly nervous about how much I will need to control on my end as well as try to keep in tact throughout the week. I really quite struggled last year on the conference with expressing myself properly and trying to focus on just about everything that will be discussed or let alone taught on the event. It was difficult for me on a very deep emotional level not being able to spend quality time with my friends in person-(which is a whole other story for some different post.)
