We offer environments and support specifically designed to meet the unique needs of individuals with disabilities.

Everyone should have the opportunity to experience worship and community. Every Sunday, we offer accommodations and support for individuals with special needs across our ministry environments.

Depending on your needs, support may include sign language interpretation, sensory headphones, dedicated volunteers, and specialized environments designed to provide a welcoming and engaging experience for everyone.

Adults

auditorium worship

Buckhead Church offers live ASL interpretation during the 11:00 a.m. service to help make worship accessible for the Deaf and hard-of-hearing community. The interpreter is located on the left-center side of the main auditorium, and no reservation is required. If this support would be helpful to you or someone in your family, we invite you to join us in this seating area.

We offer wheelchair-accessible seating throughout the auditorium, along with companion seating for family members, friends, or caregivers. If you need assistance finding a seat, our Guest Services team would be happy to help.
