Inclusion Awareness Day is the second weekend in October. Please join Pathways Awareness by setting aside that day or an alternate day in the fall to reflect on how well your congregation includes worshippers of all abilities in worship, ministry, fellowship and education every day of the year. It is our hope that Inclusion Awareness Day brings lasting change to your faith community so that worshipers of all abilities can participate freely every day of the year.

Use the workbooks below to plan Inclusion Awareness Day and make a commitment to creating an accessible and inclusive church, synagogue or mosque where everyone feels welcome.
