Do You Really See Me?: Pastoral Care and Disabled People SERIES (Association for Clinical Pastoral Education)
Do You Really See Me? “See me! Touch me! Feel me!” sang Tommy in the great rock musical by the Who. Intellectual and developmental disabilities are a diagnostic category but not an illness or disease. People with labels such as cerebral palsy, autism and intellectual disability also get sick and deal with other life threatening diseases. However, they and their families and/or caregivers often experience typical acute care hospitals as risky and dangerous places because of assumptions about disability, issues in communication, and judgments about quality of life, grief, and loss. Pastoral caregivers thus have the opportunity to combine sensitive care of individuals, families, and staff with advocacy that addresses stereotypes, assumptions, and gaps in their care and support.
This three-part on-demand webinar series includes:
- An Introduction to Understanding of Models of Disability and Terminology
- Dimensions of Grief and Loss in the Lives of People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities and Pastoral Strategies for Addressing Them
- Pastoral Care and Advocacy Beyond the Hospital Walls

The National Collaborative on Faith and Disability 2015 Webinar SERIES (Collaborative on Faith and Disability)
While many agencies providing services and supports recognize the right to religious freedom, they seldom include spirituality in individual planning. Nor do they often help people participate in the spiritual activities or religious communities of their choice and/or tradition. Individuals and their families also often face a mixed response from congregations, even though many congregations and faith networks have established model programs and strategies for including people with disabilities.
This webinar series from Collaborative on Faith and Disability explores these dynamics and include the following on-demand webinars:
- Including Spirituality in Assessment, Evaluation, and Person-Centered Planning Processes
- Creative Strategies by Provider and Service Organizations in Addressing Spiritual Needs and Choices
- Congregational Strategies for Reaching Out to Agencies and Working With Them to Identify and Honor Spiritual Supports and Enable Inclusion and Ongoing Participation
- Strategies for Congregations to Use in Building Awareness and Commitment Within Congregation
- Best Practices and Resources for Moving From Inclusion to Belonging as Contributing, Valued Members of Faith Communities
The mission of the Collaborative on Faith and Disability is to support people with disabilities, their families, and those who support them by providing national and international leadership in the areas of research, education, service, and dissemination related to disability, religion, and inclusive supports.
