A how-to guide to integrate children and youth with special
needs into church programs and activities, including worship.
Integrating children and teens with learning differences into
church programs is a growing priority for nearly all congregations,
large and small, yet many feel ill-equipped to "manage" those with
special needs in their classrooms, programs and worship. This
guidebook for churches is designed to help integrate children and
teens with learning differences and their families into the fabric
of everyday church life. A useable on-the-ground resource for
church leaders with specific suggestions, samples, and processes
for adapting curricula, training volunteers, and supporting parents
and caregivers, this guide is grounded in theological principles
for the inclusion of people with disabilities in the life of a
congregation. Begins by focusing on human relationships instead of
programs. Expanding the church's awareness and understanding of
inclusion is done with respect and achieved by extending the gospel
of welcome to all. An extensive annotated bibliography of support
materials included.Includes how to train volunteers and staff for
hands-on work with children and youth who have special needs.
