Office of Accessibility Concerns
The Office of Accessibility Concerns works to cultivate and institutionalize a “theology of wholeness and justice.” Working in partnership with religious professionals, lay leaders, and the Board-appointed Accessibilities Committee, the goal is total accessibility so that people living with physical, sensory, emotional, and cognitive disabilities can fully participate in worship, study, service, and leadership. The Office of Accessibility Concerns develops educational materials, worship resources, and offers consultative services, working with Unitarian Universalist Association staff groups, districts, congregations, and individuals to eliminate attitudinal, architectural, and institutional barriers at every level.
Accessibility is a journey; no matter where your congregation is, please check out our Accessibility Touchstones (PDF, 17 pages). This document contains eight brief resources that were developed in collaboration with Unitarian Universalists with disabilities, and includes all sorts of information to help a congregation as it moves along the path to becoming truly inclusive.
