[Faith-Talk] Accessibility At Churches And Advocacy

[VIAS, ARMANDO]

I believe that my church is part of The Assemblies Of God. The church
website is https://theassemblyga.org. Also, I've sent an email today to
their office about implementing newsletters and stuff. I believe that I had
offered to help make their website accessible, but haven't heard back from
them regarding that offer. Instead, they are moving their website to
Subsplash.

Hello Armando,
	Thanks for inquiring concerning this topic.  I have been engaged in
this area for a few years, both in the local church, and at the
denominational level.    If appropriate, would you be willing  to share the
denomination of which the church you are working with?  You can send me this
to me directly, if you do not wish to share this with a wider audience.
Some denominations have ministry  teams/organizations to assist in this
area, and there are para-church organizations that can assist, as well. 
Blessings,
Allen

Hello all. I am new to the group!

 

I don't know if this is relevant to the group, but this is related to
accessibility.

 

For those of you that go to church, have you ever had to advocate for
accessible accommodations? For example, my church is switching websites, and
I'm trying my best to ensure accessibility to include everyone. Had you had
luck advocating with your church?


Sincerely,

Armando Vias
