Individual Advocacy

Individual Instructed Advocacy:
Advocacy that is undertaken directly by an advocate based on a client instruction. The process is guided by the principles of self-determination, client empowerment and self-advocacy. The advocate outlines options and the client determines the path to issue resolution. The advocate assumes the competency of the client to instruct unless the contrary is indicated.
