The Inclusion Lab: Interactive Workshops for Churches & Organizations
Families with disabilities often decide whether to return to a church within the first ten minutes of arrival. Is your environment truly welcoming, or are there hidden barriers preventing families from experiencing your community?
What the Workshop Includes:
- Strategic Adaptation: Group activities to customize your programs for all abilities.
- Facility Audit: A collaborative walkthrough to identify and solve physical barriers.
- Empathy Simulation: Hands-on exercises to experience the “visitor perspective.”
