We lay out the legal baseline for disability ministry and show how to move beyond minimums to real inclusion. We share de-escalation tools for meltdowns, clear safety steps, and policies that protect dignity while lowering risk.

• disability attendance gap and why it persists
• ADA exemptions for churches and local law checks
• insurance requirements tied to programs and events
• treating laws as baseline, aiming for excellence
• practical upgrades like adult changing tables and supplies
• building policies for seizures, elopement, evacuation
• sensory-aware drills and alarm planning
• de-escalation before meltdown, triggers, tools
• safety first, clear the room, create space
• legal limits on restraint and contacting caregivers
• two-adult rule and incident documentation
• dignity, privacy, and reducing audience effects
• policies as pathways to responsible gospel access
