About Us

At the Self-Reliant Advocacy Group, we are advocates here to assist clients and their network of support in effectively implement life decisions based on a client's individualized needs, while increasing independence, self-reliance, and self-esteem. 

Self-Reliant Advocacy Group serves San Diego Regional Center clients ages 18 years and older who desire Independent or Supported living  services to assist them in actualizing their personal goals. 

We serve the following areas in the East Region of San Diego: 

Lakeside, El Cajon, La Mesa, Rancho San Diego, Spring 

Valley and Alpine areas

Self-Reliant Advocacy's 4 A's philosophy:

•  Authority - Clients have the authority to decide what, how and when services are provided.
• Access - Clients access community partners and resources through collaborative support with staff.
• Awareness - Clients are encouraged to maintain both their physical and mental health with regular check-ins. 
• Advocacy - Clients increase their self-advocacy and participate in making decisions regarding their care, social groups, and every day life.

Future client's can self refer or be supported by their SDRC coordinator to make a referral for our services. The Self Reliant Advocacy team will start the intake assessment in conjunction with key support staff.

We provide education, advocacy, and case management to assist clients and their entire support team in making and implementing life decisions based on a client's personal preferences  and needs. We help our clients structure and maintain a stable home life in a private home of choice, typical of other non-institutional, non-licensed homes in the community in which persons without disabilities might live. We assist our clients in maintaining a social environment while living in their private home and engaging in independent living skills such as personal hygiene, safety, healthy lifestyle habits, and meal planning.
