When you have a child who is different, you may give him additional tools to cope, but he would still eat at the same dinner table. When the family goes on vacation, everybody is included. There are no special tables or special vacations just for the differently-abled children. Families are usually inclusive, with all the children playing, eating and having fun together.

This is what it means to be inclusive and it is the goal we should all move toward within our communities.

The Inclusive Outdoor Classroom has been admirably working toward this objective for the past three years.
