“For nothing will be impossible with God.”
-Luke 1:37

Your success is our priority.

Including a student with significant disabilities in a school where it’s never been done before can be intimidating. Over and over again, we’ve been told by principals, teachers and pastors that they would love to be more inclusive, but just don’t know how. Our goal is to help facilitate that process.

The One Classroom Manual addresses the how of inclusive Catholic education by providing a roadmap for successful implementation. As you read each chapter, you’ll be amazed at what your school is already doing to help all of God’s children succeed.

Beyond the One Classroom Manual, our Programming staff work with local and national institutions to identify research, tools, and resources helpful for educators.

These resources our housed on our website via the link below.

Why Inclusion Matters

Throughout the year, we offer in-person training and partner with other qualified individuals and institutions to offer high-quality professional development. Additionally, our Programming staff are available to come to conduct school visits and school-specific trainings. For existing and long-time Partner Schools, refresher courses enable us to present the most current information. Site visits are an integral and mandatory part of our One Classroom Program Development process.
