Westwoodians at Pride Parade 2011



As a community, we are committed to being open to all, without regard to sexual orientation, race, gender, age, ability or income.

Relating to gender and sexual orientation, Welcoming Congregations are those which have completed a Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) program and have passed a congregational vote to affirm that they welcome the membership and active participation of lesbians, gay men, bisexuals and/or transgender people.

Westwood was certified as a Welcoming Congregation in June 2006.
