Caring for our family and friends is not radical. In fact, hospitality and caring are foundations of our culture. We believe that the inclusion issue cuts directly to the core of our values. Inclusion seems so simple, so full of common sense, and yet it is xo complex. Inclusion sets off fire works in the souls of those involved.
Inclusion challenges our beliefs about humanity and cuts deep into the recesses of our hearts.
Inclusion is NOT about placing a child with a disability in a classroom or school. That is only a tiny piece of the puzzle. However, in danger there is also opportunity for growth. Thus, schools and communities, teachers and citizens, who face their own fears and mortality by welcoming ALL children, instantly create the climate for a new kind of growth. Inclusion becomes an opportunity and a catalyst to build a better, more humane and democratic system.
