Via Wheelie Catholic, a link to PBS’ Religion & Ethics Newsweekly article, Faith Communities and Disability:

I’ve had families say to me, “I’ve fought all week to get my kid included in a school or whatever. I shouldn’t””I don’t want to have to fight when it comes to Sunday morning or Saturday.”

The piece profiles several inclusive faith communities, but only alludes briefly to the many church congregations and other communities that are positively unwelcoming to those with disabilities.
