Mobility - Introduction





Mobility accessibility means that anyone can use the congregational building and grounds.  This means the church provides accessible parking leading to an accessible entrance, which, in turn, leads to an accessible worship area and preferably to at least one accessible classroom.  Accessibility for wheelchair users has become the criteria of measurement for many areas of mobility accessibility.  Also included in this section are questions related to hand mobility, particularly in the use of door handles and water faucets.

Congregations that earn the Mobility emblem meet the criteria outlined in these sections:

• Parking
• Entrance
• Interior
• Restrooms
• Worship Area

Congregations are highly encouraged to meet the criteria in these sections as well:

• Classrooms
• Fellowship/Gathering Area
