Inclusion Seekers helps people build relationships through shared interests, local events, and everyday community life. They believe stronger communities are built person-to-person: neighbors becoming friends, people showing up for one another, and everyone having the chance to participate and contribute.

Over the past few years, Inclusion Seekers has shifted their approach to prioritizing community connections, especially for people with disabilities. Through the Community Connections Project, families with a person with a disability build real relationships and lives rooted in belonging through project funds, mentoring, and learning experiences. These projects have included neighborhood gatherings, music events, community gardens, and creative projects!

Watch the webinar above to hear from families who participated in the Community Connections Project about their experience and to hear practical ways that Inclusion Seekers on how as an organization Inclusion Seekers shifted and began to prioritize community connections.
