Definición

  • Families'/parents' (F/P) advocacy on behalf of their children has emerged in the past 40 years as an organized force to obtain care and services for children, especially for those with special needs. Along with the self-help movement in the 1960s and 1970s, individuals sharing similar social or medical concerns formed groups to provide mutual support, share medical and practical information, and act as an identifiable advocacy force for change.
