Ready Set Go Self Advocacy Curriculum From Rcil - Final
LEVEL ONE: is intended to be a 4 course series for a small group to take together in succession.
Each course builds on the vocabulary and concepts of the previous course. All courses will include
a preparatory assignment (topic warm-up), some style of presentation (film clip, video, short lecture,
learning activity), a Q&A and discussion time and a review of the lesson handout, a summary of
terms and concepts important to “take away” from each course.
Other Level One courses/topics can be added upon request, and based on student need.

LEVEL TWO: is intended to be a 2 session pairing for a small group and /or individual to take after
completing the Level One series. Level Two is all about experiential learning. Part one will look at
the “self” as the future professional. Part two will look to the community as a support and resource
to the current learner and future employee.
Level Two courses can be repeated based on student goals and needs.
LEVEL THREE: will be a student led and created experience that will allow for practice and
demonstrate of practical self-advocacy skills. Instructor and student will lay out an action plan,
schedule internal deadlines, identify resources, plan a mock budget and demonstrate learned skills by
an agreed upon date.
Activity ideas will be student led, but some ideas, for example, could include teaming with the
CDR Adult Day Program, a Disability film review, or Role-playing in mock self-advocacy
scenarios (interviews, networking, etc.). Students will end their experience with some type of
simple documentation of the activity, e.g., written paragraph, captioned photo(s), vlog.
