ACCESSIBILITY

UUCA is committed to making our facilities fully accessible for all. Hearing assistance devices, large print hymnals, large print orders of service, and a Braille hymnal are available in the front foyer for use in our services. In the sanctuary, the first two rows behind the railings are reserved for the physically challenged. There are wheelchair cut-outs on the main level of the sanctuary. All three levels of our building are accessible via lifts (to upper level of the sanctuary, at the parking lot entrance, and to the lower level). The foyer telephone is equipped with an assistance device and all room numbers are identified in Braille. Please contact the UUCA office with any questions or concerns about accessibility at UUCA - or click here to read the 2002 report of the Accessibility Task Force (a 56k Adobe Acrobat file).
