Abstract
Calvary chapel of Brevard (CCB) has been a long-standing pillar of strength in Brevard County. Calvary 's mission to reach a hurting world and support Brevard 's citizens has made Calvary a church home for many families in the community. Calvary 's outreach programs have met numerous needs of the community 's struggling families. Calvary has also provided a safe haven for those struggling from financial, physical, and spiritual needs, since its inception 10 years ago. Donna and Michael Little attend CCB along with their 4 children, Bailey (2), Darcy (4), Connor (5) and Stephen (7). Last year Stephen Little was diagnosed with a disability known as Selective Mutism. Calvary has had a long time relationship with the Little family. Now that Stephen has been diagnosed with Selective Mutism, there is a need to offer help to the Little family. This is a proposal for an all-inclusion children 's ministry, outlining Stephen 's disability and special needs. CCB has a mission and desire to include all children in their outreach programs. This program would accommodate Stephen and his family and provide a positive and safe place for spiritual growth for the Little family. Offering a full-inclusion children 's ministry will not only help Stephen, but also support families in the community with varying disabilities.
