What do you think is the difference? I know that self-advocacy is advocacy, but what about the "self" part of self-advocacy?

Self advocacy means you advocate for yourself.

Advocacy means someone/some organization advocates for you, as well as yourself.

Advocacy is just a big money scam! Organizations always end up caring about their stupid board members and their office politics.
