Youth Ministry is about leading teens closer to Christ, and that includes teens of every ability and background. This year’s Fall Youth Ministry Workshop will talk about how to best support disabilities in youth ministry. This will include practical strategies for supporting disabilities with a focus on Autism, ADHD, and Down Syndrome. What accommodations can we make and what things should we be looking out for as we accompany teens in their journey of faith?

The Fall Youth Ministry Workshop 2024 includes the Supporting Disabilities in Youth Ministry presentation, dinner, and table discussions on current topics in youth ministry. This workshop is included within the concurrent New Youth Minister Orientation; if you are registered for orientation, you do not need to register for the workshop.

The presentation will be led by Sarah Schmitt, M. Ed. from Witness to Dignity. You can find out more at https://www.witnesstodignity.com/
