The National Catholic Partnership on Disability developed a framework for the universally designed parish (UDP) as way to proactively limit barriers for persons with disabilities. Learn how you can use the framework to increase accessibility and limit barriers so that persons with disabilities find that your parish can be a home where they belong.
