Abstract:

The Synagogue Council of Massachusetts has established a framework of dialogue that fosters pluralism while respecting individual differences and ideologies. It brings together the leadership of local synagogues and denominational movements in study and dialogue. Its paradigmatic program initiative is an annual Young Leadership Unity Mission to New York, now in its eleventh year and with more than 300 alumni.
