EMERSON UNITARIAN UNIVERSALIST CHURCH
Location
Our church is located in Canoga Park, a neighborhood of the City of Los Angeles in the West San Fernando Valley. Emerson draws its membership primarily from Canoga Park and other adjoining LA neighborhoods, as well from neighboring communities of Calabasas, Topanga, Simi Valley, and Santa Clarita. Our building is contemporary and reflects our commitment to the inclusion of people of all ages, abilities, mobilities, and sexual orientation.

Chemical Sensitivity
We use odorless candles and we have well ventilated areas in our sanctuary. If you have a question please talk to the welcoming desk or an usher.
Special Needs Children
If you want your child to participate in the religious education program and feel that they may require special accommodation due to learning disabilities or behavioral issues, please contact the Director of Religious Education or Minister in advance so the best possible arrangements can be made.
Pastoral Care
We provide pastoral care to all members regardless of ability. To build the beloved community, the volunteers on the care team receive special training to assist those who may feel unwelcome, patronized or marginalized because of their disability. They may not be able to fully remedy every situation, but they can provide a compassionate ear and a willingness to enlist the help of others. If you have a hidden disability that you think it’s important for someone to know, please contact a member of the pastoral care team or our minister to share your information in confidence.
Service Animals
Service Animals are welcome at our church.
If you have any questions not answered or concerns not addressed, please ask at the welcome desk or contact the church office for further information.
