Over 1120 religious organizations have already signed up. Only 41 are Synagogues or Jewish Community Centers. Our Synagogue is endeavoring to remove barriers of architecture, communications, and attitudes that exclude people with disabilities from full and active participation. People, with and without disabilities, are encouraged in our Synagogue to practice their faith and use their gifts in worship, service, study and leadership. Please sign up and be included.
Access begins in the heart.
Help us open our gates of prayer so that ALL may worship. A religious entity is a religious organization or an entity that is controlled by a religious organization, including a place of worship. The exemption covers all of the activities of a religious entity, whether religious or secular. For example, a Synagogue operates a day care center and a private elementary school for members and nonmembers alike. The Synagogue, however, would remain exempt, even if its tenant were covered.
