Nurturing Confident Voices in Different Learners – Voices of Compassion Podcast

Episode 11,

Show Notes

What does it take for students with learning differences to find their voice and advocate for their own needs? In this episode, we explore self advocacy with CHC experts, Emily Hsu, PhD and Yi-Hua Lin, PsyD as a learnable skill that’s critical for academic success and beyond. We’ll discuss when students can start developing this ability, how it evolves from elementary through high school, and the practical strategies kids can use to speak up in the classroom—even when they feel different from their peers.

We’ll also tackle the parent perspective: how to build your child’s confidence at home without overstepping, and how to partner with teachers to create a safe environment for self-advocacy. Whether you’re a parent, educator, or advocate, you’ll walk away with actionable strategies to help every learner stand up for themselves.
