Autism and the Church



Most parents of children with special needs know just how challenging it can be to fully include their children in houses of worship. So I'm always on the watch for good articles to share about advocates working to better address this crisis of faith.

Unfortunately, the most spiritual and accepting of people are not always the ones we meet in the pews on Sunday. Once again, your advocacy on behalf of your child is critical to needed change, resulting in valuable lessons in true faith practices for all.

Here's one such article worth reading: Faiths Learn to Include Autistic Kids

Bless you for making the effort.
