Self advocates are involved at all levels at BACI:
- as
individuals
-
as Vice Chair of BACI's Board of
Directors
- as
members of all Advisory Committees
We’re involved on BACI’s Advocacy
Committee, Accreditation Committee and Poverty Committee, and
we’re working with the teens to help develop a new
generation of leadership. When we can share our story with others,
it inspires them to be leaders as well.
We've also been given the opportunity to contribute to
BACI’s annual report. We are assuming our
place in the organization in the way that we should.
BACI helps give us more opportunities to be leaders outside the
organization and to speak at important lobby meetings.
One of our self advocates has been a speaker in the United
Way’s Speaker’s Bureau since 2003. He does
such a good job that he keeps getting invited to come
back!
Many of us have been successful in community living and in our
personal life and career. Our dreams have turned out
well. We look forward to working with BACI in the
future and continuing to be leaders for years to come.
