Telling Your Story (Phone)

Les personnes handicapées et d'autres peuvent composer leur histoire pour les agents publics.

"Telling Your Story" is a free tool that persons with disabilities, family members, and other advocates can use to compose and practice the personal story they'll present to elected public officials or other policy makers at all levels of government when seeking policy changes or increasing awareness about disability issues.
