At Stony Brook, we want to be a church that invites everyone in the local community to be a part of the
church community. And while we, like any good church, are trying to reach every and all types of people, there is
one group that generally finds themselves on the outside of community. These are the kids and families who are
affected by disability. It is hard to believe and difficult to hear, but 85% of these families do not attend church
Why not? Because churches, like many other places in society, were not designed with them in mind and
there are physical, emotional, and social barriers in place. Case in point, We were ready to build a playground and use
wood playground mulch to provide a safe fall surface forgetting that kids with disabilities would struggle or even not
be able to participate. This would not work. We could not invite families to church and then build structures and
surfaces that limited or excluded them and claim to be welcoming to them!
