If you are ready to work towards more disability-inclusive ministries and outreach, today is your day!
No matter your role in the church, you play an essential piece in the conversation when it comes to disability inclusion and accessibility! Whether you're a church leader with an official title, a faithful volunteer, a family member, or a person directly impacted by a disability or a member of a church congregation, there are things that you can do to help advance the mission of making church accessible to people with different needs.
In my 16+ years of working in special education in the public school system, I've found that there are broad domains to disability inclusion. We all know that there are WAY more, but these 5 pillars serve as a great foundation!
The Getting Started with Disability Inclusion Workbook will walk you through each of the 5 domains and will provide you with tools to evaluate each area reflectively. Also included in this workbook is a next-step planning guide so that you can start to take action toward disability inclusion!
Here's how it works.
Jump over to the Intent to Include shop and snag yours. It's a digital download so there is no waiting! Here, let me help you get there quickly ->(DIRECT LINK)
I'm a fan of old-school paper copies of things so if that's you, print out the workbook, grab your favorite drink, and settle into a quiet place where you can do some serious thinking & reflection.
Work through each page, preferably in order. Once you've completed the whole workbook, you will have a good idea about the areas in which your church or ministry is rocking disability inclusion, and you'll also have identified some areas where there are possibilities for growth.
Friend, my prayer is that this resource will only be the beginning of your journey toward advocating for disability inclusion in the church and ministries.
