Mission Statement
  MISSION OF THE ACADEMY FOR JEWISH RELIGION CALIFORNIA The Academy for Jewish Religion California is a Transdenominational* institution dedicated to the training of rabbis, cantors, chaplains, and other Jewish community leaders. Its mission is to develop religious leaders steeped in Torah wisdom and traditions and capable of transforming Jewish communities into places where all Jews can grow toward spiritual wholeness and well-being. It is the Academy’s intent to graduate Jewish leaders who will serve as agents of transformation wherever they work by promoting genuine concern for the joys and pains of all people, dedication to moral living, and commitment to viewing Torah as foundational for human wisdom and spiritual practice. Transdenominational Judaism recognizes that all the denominations and movements within contemporary Jewry are valid and provide purposeful Jewish education and spiritual experience. Clergy and professional leaders who follow this path are committed to serving Jews wherever they find them, irrespective of ideology or institutional affiliation. Transdenominational Judaism is committed to the spiritual, psychological, and behavioral growth of each Jew as a pathway to fulfillment and meaningful living.
