March is Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month. It is critical to bring attention to the victories and struggles that families with kids who have special needs experience. Join Ally and Sherry as they talk about who needs to be advocated for, how to speak up for yourself, and what it looks like to step past the fear of saying or doing the wrong thing in order to love people who really just want to be seen. 

Resources and Next Steps: 

1. Don’t do this alone. Whether you have a child with special needs or not, engage in biblical community by starting or joining a LifeGroup and working through your questions and challenges together. You can find a group near you at go2.lc/lifegroups.

2. Look into the resources at church4everychild.org for ideas on how to partner with your church and the families who are a part of it with you.

3. Encourage your family to engage with Scripture using the Bible App for Kids!

4. If you are a mom, check out Sherry’s book: Brave Mom: Facing and Overcoming Your Real Mom Fears.

5. If you have a child with special needs, connect with your LifeKids or Switch Pastor about LifeKids Buddies or Switch Support. 

Life.Church is for your family!
