Following God’s call to mutual love and service, Thrive continues to collaborate with churches and partner organizations to break individual and systemic barriers that keep people with disabilities from full participation—so that churches truly reflect the body of Christ where everybody belongs and everybody serves.
Together you are the body of Christ. Each one of you is part of his body. 1 Cor 12:27 (CEV)
Disability Awareness Week 2023
Conversations about diversity and equity have become front and center in recent years, but ableism has often been left out of the conversation. By shedding light on ableist practices, churches can improve their hospitality in ways that communicate each person’s worth, dignity, and value. Evaluate your church's progress at becoming fully accessible by reading the 30 Indicators of a Anti-ableist, Fully Accessible Church.
