USCJ – Ruderman Inclusion Action Community

Temple Adath Yeshurun was one of 18 congregations selected from a continent-wide search to participate as a member of the USCJ-Ruderman Inclusion Action Community. This program, designed to foster inclusion of those with disabilities is funded by the Ruderman Family Foundation. Through this effort Temple Adath will examine every aspect of their community: physical facilities, education programs, tefillah, social activities, and attitude of congregants and leaders. The United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism will provide consultation and guidance to develop and implement an action plan to make Adath a more inclusive community.
