Review of the week
==== **Self-advocacy** - Huh? What does that mean? All week long we'll talk about ways to stand up for ourselves and the way we learn best. Each of us is responsible for our own success....But, you know what? It's really great when we help each other out. We'll discover new ways of finding successful strategies that we can share with each other ====
