Faith communities may be an important part of many individuals’ life experience. Use these links to learn more about inclusion for people with disabilities. Some of the topics that might be addressed include where to get help, friendship and inclusion, tips for parents, making it through a service, resources, information and supports. Although we have made an effort to be as comprehensive as possible, we recognize that this is not an exhaustive list of resources or representative of all faith groups.
