Standing Up for Your Rights means learning to actively do something in your own best interest. This is also known as self-advocacy.

After listening to this Toolbox program, you will be better prepared to:

• Feel more in control about your life.
• Build confidence to face challenges that seem too difficult to overcome.
• Reach out to others, such as asking to talk to someone who is in a situation similar to yours.
• Feel hopeful rather than hopeless and helpless.
