Resumo: This study aims at identifying and analysing those factors that foster the development of selfadvocacy of young people with disability in the contexto of the Extra-mural Project Pró-Leader: promoting self-advocacy of young people with disability. In this study, selfadvocacy is defined as na action and voice of a person or a group of people on their own behalf with the purpose to promote and defend their rights, without the intervention os a third part. This study inserts the theme of disability and youth in the Field of Cultural Studies in Education, insofar as when these two human features are articulate they characterize na extreme social vulnerabilityof this group that are at the rrots of their invisibility. Studying this phenomena is crucial for the advancement of knowledge about processes of autonomy and independency of young people with disability with the view of supporting them to breaking the cycle of invisibility within which they have been immersed in for many centuries. It also places the young people with disability in the context of the development of the Brazilian public policy, area of knowledge still full of gaps. For this purpose, this study adopts the Foucault Theory of Poweer relations, in order to analyse the emerging data and to draw conclusions from it. Participatory research and the Corbin and Strauus (2008) Grounded Theory have been the methodology adopted to lead this investigation. Data analysis shows that there are four dimensões into place in the processo f developing the role of self advocates for youngster with disability, which are, (1) achieving a deeper understanding on the moto ´nothing about us without us´; (2) achieving and developing self-knowledge and knowledge of others; (3) resisting to subjection: facilitatior factors and, finaly, (4) rupture of subjection: exercising self-advocacy. The study shows that there are strong links between these four dimensions and the relevance of the extra-mural activity in this process.
