520 |a For various reasons, churches have lagged behind wider trends in society to be inclusive of people with disabilities. This article explores some of the reasons for this lag and suggests strategies for churches to be more intentional about creating a more hospitable environment for people with disabilities - physical, intellectual, and profound - in dialogue with policies enacted by the Department of Veterans Affairs, developments in inclusive education, and L'Arche. The central thesis is that if secular agencies are motivated by a “people first” agenda, the church ought to be guided by a vision that involves ministry not only to people with disabilities but also with them.
