​History
​
In 1964, the first SPRED Agency was formed in Archdiocese of Chicago. The SPRED method was developed by Fr. James McCarthy, Sr. Mary Therese Harrington, S.H. and Sister Susanne Gallagher, S.P. today there are over 160 SPRED parishes in Chicago and expanding nationally and internationally.
Inspiration
The late Deacon Dave Dwyer brought the SPRED model to the Diocese of Richmond in 2011. Deacon Dave recognized that individuals with disabilities are often turned away from faith communities. "It's a tragedy because you don't just lose that person; you lose the whole family."
