The Rabbinical Alliance of America (in Hebrew, Igud HaRabbonim) is a national rabbinic organization founded in 1942. Today, our 900+ members across a broad spectrum of Orthodox Judaism serve as congregational leaders, religious teachers, chaplains, heads of Jewish organizations and communal leaders.
The Rabbinical Alliance of America affiliates with an active Beis Din and provides services to rabbis and community members. Services include rabbinic coaching, placement, help with wills, burial planning and more. Every month, the organization convenes for a festive meal on Rosh Chodesh. Members complete the entire Talmud each year, celebrating together on 18 (Chai) Elul.
