Acts as a surrogate family member to ensure that the participant’s rights are not violated.

Provides participants an opportunity to socialize one to one with the Advocate and/or in the community in meaningful recreation and leisure activities such as swimming, hiking, meals out, concerts, sporting events, vacations, and church programs. Advocates can participate in ISP or special meetings. Help ensure participants are living and working in appropriate settings.
