Any Questions? A Guidebook for Inclusive Education, Written by Barbara Newman, Published by CLC Network.

As CLC Network has partnered with many Christian School Communities since 1989 to promote and build inclusive community for those with moderate to significant levels of disability, we have also had many visitors to these schools. This book lists our answers to the most frequently asked questions from these visitors. The book contains many helpful topics such as planning individual goals, the biblical support for inclusive community, circle of friends, and much more. There are also several helpful lessons and forms. This book is written by Barbara J. Newman, inclusion specialist, and would be helpful for schools looking to begin an inclusion program as well as for schools implementing inclusion and wanting a resource for new staff and board members as well as parents and community members inquiring about the program.
