Policy Statements
The Massachusetts Board of Rabbis celebrates the breadth of diversity within the Jewish people, as among all humanity. Delighting in the myriad ways that human beings are created in God’s image, we encourage the greatest spirit of openness in our communities, that we might be blessed through the unique holiness of all who enter.

This committee meets regularly to address critical issues affecting a variety of communities and constituencies, maintaining close contact with our membership for comments and approval of statements made public on behalf of our rabbinate.
