Speaking Up: One Participant’s Experience:

For the most part, it has been good. But I have had individuals who seemed to not like me, and service providers who seem to control the individual by saying 'they can't do that!' and not allowing them to speak for themselves or try something new. 

Thank you for sharing! Everyone deserves to be heard and supported in pursuing what matters to them.
