Advocating

Welcome

Is Advocacy for me?

  • By advocacy, we mean that you will actively support, defend, promote, and recommend the integration of wheelchair service education into professional rehabilitation academic programs and regional training centers as a sustainable, appropriate wheelchair workforce development strategy. 

Am I an advocate?

  • Advocates can be educators, students, practicing clinicians, and any other individual that would like to influence a program or training center to provide appropriate wheelchair service education.
