Webinars
Welcome to NCPD, established in 1982 to further implementation of the 1978 Pastoral Statement of U.S. Catholic Bishops on People with Disabilities, which calls for full inclusion of all persons with disabilities in the Church and in society–a vision we are still working urgently to achieve. We publish a newsletter, offer various information resources and present Catholic perspectives on disability issues.
Join us in the quest for full inclusion
and see what we can do together!
