About RRC: The Rabbinical School for Innovative Jewish Leaders
RRC is a progressive rabbinical school where people of all backgrounds engage intensively with Jewish texts, thought and practice. Our students gain the expertise and practical training rabbis need. And they experience a transformative, supportive learning environment that inspires the work they will do as rabbis. Each student develops a unique rabbinical vision that integrates Jewish knowledge with dedication to the Jewish people, spiritual maturity, interpersonal skills and integrity.
Our curriculum is grounded in lively seminar-style courses and hevrutah (partnered) study. We offer a unique specialization in social justice organizing and a pioneering Department of Multifaith Studies and Initiatives. And our students’ extensive field work reflects the wide variety of roles RRC graduates play in congregations within and beyond the Reconstructionist movement, Hillels, schools, social-justice organizations, hospitals and interfaith organizations.
We are committed to our roots in tradition, to egalitarianism and inclusion, and to helping Jewish communities flourish. We emphasize participatory decision making; our students learn to connect with people on their own terms, hear their needs, and create vibrant Jewish communities.
In the winter of 2010-11, RRC will launch an innovative online effort to engage the Jewish community directly.
