Navigate Life Texas: Resources for kids with disabilities and special needs
Texas Advocates has twenty local chapters across the state and a board of directors that is made up of representatives from each chapter. The board meets in Austin twice at the annual state conference and conducts five regional meetings each year.
Texas Advocate Board members and other Texas Advocate members visit their legislators, attend Capitol Day, meet with State Agency representatives and sit on statewide committees and taskforces including the Disability Policy Consortium. Texas Advocates speaks out for Texans with disabilities.
Local Texas Advocate Chapters provide training, participate in community service activities, conduct fundraisers and participate in local public policy issues. They fight to stop unfair treatment and advocate for more and better services and supports for people with disabilities to be included in their communities.
