Are we giving our student’s the life skill of advocating for themselves once they leave our educational organizations? Students who feel empowered are more motivated and likely to achieve in post-secondary outcomes. We will provide case studies, student, parent, and teacher interviews and anecdotal evidence of the power of the student voice in their own meeting. Examples of case-manager and student meeting preparation and post meeting follow up will be presented. Implications of how this practice can mitigate disputes and lead to resolution will be discussed.
