Abstract

{SUMMARY} This article provides a history and description of a religious organization which works with congregations to develop group worship and one-to-one mentoring relationships with people who have cognitive impairments. It tells the story of how a parent's concern for their child's special religious needs within a specific geographical area has grown to a nationwide effort at inclusion. In turn, its expansion has led to increased financial support and then to the refinement of curricula developed for its worship and mentoring approach and its outreach to seminaries.
