We
are caught in a world that is trying to teach our children to simply
"accept", or, even worse, "tolerate" those with differences. To really
see inclusion work within our schools, communities, churches and society
in general, we must make a shift from "tolerance" and "acceptance" to
understanding that each individual will bring something unique to the
greater whole. When others come to understand the interconnectedness of
all people and how every human being is needed in that larger "whole".

on trisomy 21 or disabilities in general. It is a compilation of ideas
from various community members for presentations to various age groups.
