National Organization On Disability - Religion And Disability Program
By: Renata Bursten, Dragonfly Staff
This interfaith program from the National Organization on Disability (NOD) urges local congregations, national denominational groups and seminaries to remove architectural, communication and attitudinal barriers.
Many people with disabilities find places of worship not as accessible or welcoming as they could be. The N.O.D. Religion and Disability Program, urges local congregations, national denominational groups and seminaries to remove architectural, communication and attitudinal barriers. N.O.D.'s award-winning series of interfaith guides, "That All May Worship", "Loving Justice", and "From Barriers to Bridges", help religious communities identify and remove obstacles to a full life of faith for people with disabilities.
