Coming to antioch in 2023
Inclusive Play for ALL!

NorthBridge Church is partnering with the national experts, Unlimited Play, to design and build Antioch’s first inclusive playground for the community.
This playground will enable all children — regardless of their abilities — to play together, side by side. It will also allow parents and caregivers with disabilities to play with their children. NorthBridge Church is a fully accessible church — ALL are welcome!
How does this benefit the community?
In Antioch, statistically 1 in 10 people have a disability. And yet, there are no playgrounds here that welcome everyone equally. Building an inclusive playground in our community will help break down barriers and bring people and families together. Inclusive play brings together children of all abilities, creating a sense of community where all children feel nurtured, valued, encouraged and respected. And research shows that communities thrive when their children thrive.
Why Is NorthBridge building an all-inclusive playground for the community?
Play is critical for a child’s development. It builds imagination, enhances independence, promotes physical activity, fosters healthy brain development and eases anxiety. Playgrounds are designed specifically for kids, but not all kids. Rarely will you find children with disabilities able to enjoy the local playground equipment. Why not? Because it’s not designed nor accessible for them. They may not be able to climb stairs to enjoy the thrill of a slide, use a typical swing, nor jump on to the merry-go-round.
We’re going to change that in Antioch, but we can't do it without you!
