We are a council of local, Orthodox, pulpit clergy, supporting one another as we serve the spiritual needs of our congregants and the larger community.

Guided by a set of shared core values, our Vaad aims to provide our communities with religious education, spiritual leadership, kosher supervision, and a Beit Din for conversion and other relevant matters. Our Vaad provides clergy support and works in partnership with a lay advisory council to address communal concerns and interests.
