We welcome all who enter our space!
We are an inclusive community and we strive to celebrate the diverse pathways which lead individuals to enter our building.
We hope to create an environment where you can express your full self – including religious background, race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic status, political affiliation, ability, age, sexual orientation, and gender identity.
The Temple Israel community will not tolerate discrimination of any kind – if you experience or witness any such behavior, please alert a Temple Israel employee or officer.

“At the heart of Temple Israel is the search for true connection: to ourselves, to others, and to something bigger than ourselves. Now, more than ever, Temple Israel holds us in its heart. I am so grateful to “see” and hear our clergy, our teachers, our fellow members virtually and be uplifted together through creativity, optimism, energy and compassion.”
