Houses of worship are not essential, but true worship is: “When I was hungry, did you feed me? When I was thirsty, did you give me a drink? When I was a stranger, did you invite me in? When I was naked, did you clothe me? When I was sick and in prison, did you visit me?”

Back2School Challenge Day 5 -“Overwhelmingly, research shows that segregated settings do not improve short- or long- term outcomes for students w/ disabilities [including students w/ intellectual disabilities, autism & behavioral disabilities]. In short, full inclusion is best.”

Back2School Challenge Day6 “Nearly 70% of teachers report handling LGBTQ bullying & harassment and creating a positive atmosphere, but ⅔ of LGBTQ students indicate they do not feel the adults in their school are addressing the harassment or creating a more affirming culture.”
