“That All May Worship: Beyond the Ramp” is a one-day conference that will focus on how religious communities can make their houses of worship even more accessible to those with disabilities. Topics will reach beyond eliminating physical barriers and discuss creating services and programs in which all members can easily participate. Interfaith Disability Connection (IDC), The Shepherd Center and the First Presbyterian Church of Atlanta will present this educational conference Sunday, August 3, at the Shepherd Center in Atlanta.

The event will be led by Rabbi Lynne Landsberg, Reverend Al Mead, Imam Furqan Muhammad, and Ginny Thornburgh – four leaders in religion and disability education.

Leaders in religious communities and disability communities, advocates and friends are invited to take part in this conference on religion, acceptance, and inclusion. Attendees will gain the knowledge, resources and motivation to make positive changes in their religious communities.
