We dedicate these pages to our members, past, present and future, who have helped and will help preserve and expand the many programs and services offered at Community Reform Temple. Invariably, our members find that by giving they also receive, and by contributing to CRT's religious, educational, and fund raising activities, they develop long lasting friendships, greater knowledge of Judaism, and increased meaning in their lives. In 1958, Community Reform Temple was established on Ellison Avenue in the Village of Westbury, New York to provide a Reform Jewish congregation for this growing suburban community. We are proud to be the spiritual home of many dual-tradition families. Community Reform Temple is a member of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, the New York Federation of Reform Synagogues, and the East Meadow Jewish Community Relations Council.
Members are the lifeblood of our Temple.
Its continued presence depends on the participation of each member family, even in ways that may seem small. As you scan this website, we hope you will find something that appeals to you, either intellectually, spiritually, socially, or even professionally. Since 1992, our spiritual leader has been Rabbi Judith Cohen-Rosenberg Rabbi Judy, as she prefers to be called, is a native of Brooklyn, and previously served congregations in Rochester and Olean, in upstate New York. Rabbi Judy is the head of our religious school, and teaches the Confirmation class. My love of Judaism and the Jewish people prompted me to become a rabbi.
