Protection and Advocacy Systems

Protection and Advocacy (P&A) Systems are organizations dedicated to safeguarding the rights of individuals with disabilities. They provide free assistance to help people understand their rights, advocate for fair treatment, and address issues like discrimination or abuse. These systems ensure that individuals receive necessary services and can appeal decisions that impact their well-being. P&A Systems work to promote independence, inclusion, and equality, acting as a legal and informational resource for those who need support navigating complex systems related to their rights and services.
