persons with disabilities, self-advocacy, self-advocates
People with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (IDD) have the right to advocate and/or be supported to act as self-advocates. Self-advocates exercise their rights as citizens by communicating for and representing themselves and others, with whatever supports they need. Self-advocates must have a meaningful role in decision-making in all areas of their daily lives and in public policy decisions that affect people with IDD.
People with IDD must have the right to advocate for themselves and others. People with IDD have the right to speak or act on their own behalf and alongside other people with disabilities, whether the issue is individual or related to broader public policy.
Self-advocates provide important knowledge, experience, and skills that individuals, organizations, and government agencies need in order to effectively support the needs of and enhance the lives of people with IDD.

save atstovaujantys neįgalieji
Panašiai, kaip vaikus ir jaunuolius iki tam tikro amžiaus atstovauja tėvai, taip, manau, jūsų aprašytu atveju neįgalus žmogus gali atstovauti save.
Vartojimo pavyzdys Lietuvos negalios organizacijų forumo svetainėje: Kaip jaunus žmones su negalia įtraukti į savęs atstovavimą?

Aš neilginčiau termino. Save atstovaujantys neįgalieji gali atstovauti savo, kaip atskirų asmenų, teises, interesus, poreikius ir pan., kaip ir neįgaliųjų teises, interesus, poreikius ir pan. Man tai atrodo self-explanatory.

| O gal rašyti save ir kitus atstovaujantys neįgalieji? Nes pagal apibrėžimą, jie gali atstovauti ne tik savo, bet ir kitų teises ir poreikius. |

Reference:
What is Self-Advocacy?
“An individual’s ability to effectively communicate, convey, negotiate or assert his or her own interests, desires, needs and rights. It involves making informed decisions and taking responsibility for those decisions” (VanReusen et al., 1994).
It is important as you transition into college to understand what self-advocacy is and to develop skills that will empower you as you embark on your educational process. In the past, your parents or other adults may have made decisions for you or advocated on your behalf. Now that you are in college you will need to know what your rights and responsibilities are in order to advocate for yourself. - https://drc.ucsc.edu/general-resources/resources/online-reso...
