Catechesis

Our Gospel values and Church teaching call us to address the catechetical and instructional needs of persons with disabilities within the Catholic community and across the lifespan. NCPD has created and compiled resources to support this goal. Be sure to scroll to the bottom of the page and also to look at the "Disability" menu for more disability-specific resources.
