On this episode of the MBCBH Podcast, hosts Nate Melton and Jasper Rains highlight the vital work of the individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) Ministry at the Missouri Baptist Children’s Home. Joining the conversation is Dawn Hensley, Program Director in Peculiar, Missouri, who shares how MBCH serves adults ages 18 and older living with conditions such as autism, cerebral palsy, and Down syndrome. Rather than focusing solely on basic care, the IDD Ministry strives to create a dignified, supportive environment where clients are empowered to build independence, pursue personal goals, and achieve their full potential.
The discussion explores MBCH’s residential group homes in Peculiar and Springfield, along with an exciting new Day Haven program designed to help clients develop practical life and social skills. Dawn shares inspiring examples of how IDD clients actively engage in their local communities—from participating in Special Olympics and riding adult tricycles in local parades to serving as door greeters and choir members in their partner churches. Tune in to learn how this ministry fosters a true sense of family while equipping adults with IDD to live fulfilling, purpose-driven lives.
