The story of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities is often unknown or misunderstood by people in faith communities. Whole Community provides an introduction to the disabilitys definition and history, and an overview of current issues in ethics, cultural perceptions, and public policy. Through personal stories and often-surprising data, a new framework for relationship emergesone that reaches beyond mercy to mutuality and chooses to see disability as diversity rather than deficit.
David Morstad has steeped his book, Whole Community in years of rich experiences, relationships, and wisdom. The result is an outstanding book that takes the deep and important questions and convictions about living as one body together in Christ and turns that into practical and accessible direction for our Christian communities Barbara J. Newman, author of Autism and Your Church and Accessible Gospel, Inclusive Worship
In Whole Community, Morstad explores the many important facets of inclusion in faith communities in a straightforward manner, with thoughtful stories and experiences interwoven between the hard questions and realities of the current state of disability inclusion in our congregations. I highly recommend this book for anyone beginning or developing disability inclusion efforts in their places of worship Karen Jackson, executive director of Faith Inclusion Network of Hampton Roads and author of Loving Samantha
Whole Community is an excellent resource for faith leaders and congregations interested in improving access and inclusion for people with disabilities. Morstad explores a journey toward relationship through which congregations benefit from the gifts and talents people with disabilities bring to the community of faith Curtis Ramsey-Lucas, editor, The Christian Citizen
This handbook examines the wide-ranging applications of positive psychology in the field of intellectual and developmental disabilities. It discusses the change in perceptions of disability and the shifting use of traditional deficit-based treatments. It presents evidence-based approaches and strategies that promote individuals' strengths and capacities and as well as provide supports and services to enhance quality of life. Chapters address medical and psychological aspects in intellectual and developmental disabilities, such as mindfulness, motivation, physical well-being, and self-regulation. The book also discusses uses of assessment practices in evaluating interventions and client outcomes. In addition, it explores ways practitioners, with positive psychology, can focus on what a person is capable of achieving, thereby leading to more effective approaches to care and treatment.
Topics featured in the Handbook include:
Translating the quality of life concept into practice.
The Casual Agency Theory and its implications for understanding self-determination.
