Autism Self Advocacy Network

Telling your story is a great way to make a difference — and because it’s your story, there’s no one better to tell it! Our stories are powerful political tools, and we can use them to make real change. Hearing a real person talk about a policy problem gives policymakers a name and face to remember. This is a toolkit and it was made by the Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN). It helps you brainstorm the most important parts of what you want to say, and make a plan to use your story to create policy change. 

This handbook is part project by  the Autism Self Advocacy Network Navigating College. It is an introduction to the college experience from people with disabilities who went to college. All the writers are Autistic adults. They give you the advice they wish they had when they went to college.
