Wendy and Liz are joined by guests Natasha Christie and Nicole Payette to share what it’s like to be an advocate for your child. Natasha is a mother to a daughter with down syndrome and Nicole has been an advocate for her 13-year-old daughter with a neurodegenerative disorder. This episode delves into caregivers' perspectives on caring for a child with intellectual developmental disabilities, how caregivers can advocate for their child, and what pathways of advocacy exist.
