In support of our broader church mission, the goals of the Special Needs ministry are to lead families affected by unique needs to a life-changing relationship with Jesus Christ.
The objective(s) of the ministry are fulfilled through the ministry’s efforts:
To create an accepting church culture for the family impacted by special needs or disability.
To develop an appropriate accommodation plan for the individual with additional needs that benefits the individual while working within the policies and resources of the church.
The services of the special needs ministry may be requested by the individual themselves, the family of the individual, or the ministry leader(s) serving the individual.
For the Special Ministry, the terms “additional needs,” “special needs,” and “disability” encompass a broad range of unique needs, including but not limited to learning differences, intellectual disability, neurological disorders, developmental delays, communication disorders, social skill deficits, physical disability, sensory needs, and medical conditions. A student experiencing a significant life change may also benefit from the services of the Special Needs Ministry for a period (eg, placed with an assigned buddy or in an alternative learning environment). Understanding why a particular individual requires the services of the ministry is often unimportant. What is important is that the ministry can assist identified individuals to help them experience success in the church setting.
The Cityview Special Needs Ministry does not provide therapy, behavior modification programs, or medical intervention. To the best of our abilities, our ministry volunteers will strive to follow guidance from and utilize tools provided by parents. Medical assistance will be provided in emergencies.
