Concept / mock mini-site · Disability Is Awesome University on AJF. Not accredited higher ed. No medicine. Soft CTAs only. Forms are UI demos — not wired to a list. Mock class page — not a live enrollment.
Self-Advocate Starts — Your Manager at Work & School
Your own Start script for work, school, and home. Strengths first. Honest EF load. Camera optional forever.
Audience: Teens / adults · Manager move: Start
Short description
This class is one week of practice — a short model, a kitchen-table script, one tiny checkpoint. Strengths stay on the page. Hard parts stay on the page. No medicine lane. The learner is the manager.
What you’d learn
- Write a personal Start script that fits your day
- Shrink first steps without pretending difficulty is gone
- Ask for accommodations in plain, non-shame language
- Practice one Start win and leave the rest for next week
How a week looks
- One short lesson (watch or read) — 2–8 minute chunks
- One kitchen-table conversation or self-script
- One tiny practice + checkpoint
- Optional printable / worksheet
