SUMMARY:NBA's Research and Design: Young Adults with Disabilities Survey
DESCRIPTION:NBA’s Young Adult Leadership Development program area is undertaking a Research & Design initiative to better understand the presence and experiences of people living with disabilities within the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Currently\, our denomination does not have comprehensive data that helps us understand how many people live with disabilities\, the diversity of those experiences\, or how disability intersects with age\, vocation\, geography\, and participation in church life. \nThis survey is an initial step toward addressing that gap. Our goal is to listen\, learn\, and gather information that can guide future discernment and the design of more accessible\, inclusive\, and meaningful opportunities—particularly for young adults. Your participation is voluntary and anonymous. Responses will be reviewed and used to help us understand who is present in our denomination and what kinds of barriers or supports exist. \nWe are grateful for your time and your willingness to share\, as your voice helps shape how we move forward together. \nTake the Survey \n  \nChurch Announcement Resources\n\nChurch Announcement Scripts\n\nChurch Event Script (English)\nChurch Event Script (Spanish)\nChurch Event Script (Korean)\n\n\nSlides to Accompany Church Announcement Scripts\n\nSlides (English only)\n\n\nChurch Announcement Overview Video\n\nVideo (English only)

SUMMARY:New Fruits from Wounded Soil: Pentecost and Restorative Justice
DESCRIPTION:What does Restorative Justice mean in practice? \n“I didn’t want to hurt people anymore. That’s when I began the journey toward my healing.”\nThe “New Fruits from Wounded Soil: Pentecost and Restorative Justice” webinar will take place on Thursday\, May 14th at 12:00pm ET/11:00am CT. We welcome you to this conversation with James “Sharif” Menefield where he shares his journey of transformation through restorative justice\, grounded in lived experience\, accountability\, and hope. After decades of incarceration\, Sharif discovered that healing is possible even in the most wounded places. \n“My life story is a testament to the grace and mercy of God.”\nDrawing on the imagery of Pentecost—new life emerging from wounded soil—this conversation invites us to see restorative justice as a practice in which healing\, responsibility\, and dignity take root. \n“Now that I’m free\, I am determined to continue living out the principles of restorative justice.”\nJoin us for a powerful reflection on how justice can bear new fruit when restoration\, compassion\, and courage guide our response to harm. \nThere is no cost to attend this virtual event but registration is required. \nModerator\n \nRev. Angel Luis Rivera-Agosto\, NBA´s Community Engagement Senior Coordinator for Justice Initiatives \nSpeakers\n \nRev. Nora Jacob\, NBA’s Restorative Justice Consultant \n \nJames “Sharif” Menefield
