Our national Presbyterian Church has a wonderful site offering disability resources, a blog link, and disability consultants who can help local churches.
From the consultants: The questions can be overwhelming:
Help! I need curriculum help for children and adults with intellectual disabilities.
Can you give me information about accessibility audits/checklists/surveys?
My presbytery meets in a church that’s not accessible. Don’t they get it?
How can our church begin a ministry with people who are deaf?
What do I say to a child who asks, “Why me?”
Four consultants hired by the office of Social Welfare Ministries/Presbyterian Health, Education, and Welfare Association (PHEWA) are available to help the Church with questions like these.
Kathy McIndoe - Consultant for Hearing
The Rev. Sue Montgomery - Consultant for Mobility/Accessibility
Rev. Dr. Karen R Moritz - Consultant for Visual Disabilities
Rachel E. Byrum - Consultant for Intellectual Disability and Neurodiversity
