The URJ is committed to ensuring that our environments are safe, equitable, and inclusive. As part of its ongoing work to create a culture that prioritizes safety and accountability, the URJ encourages every congregation to craft and adopt a congregational ethics code. In 2022, the CBI board approved a Code of Ethics and a Grievance Policy, which have served as models for other congregations in the URJ and beyond. The URJ is recognizing congregations that have completed ethics codes by listing them on the URJ website and providing this special logo for their own websites.

Policies and Procedures
Following you’ll find various policies and procedures used by Congregation Beth Israel. These are provided to members as a way to better understand how things are run. Over time, issues may become more or less important, and procedures may change to accommodate our congregation’s growth. Some of these decisions are made by a vote of the board of directors; others have to do with how committees operate.
If you have questions about existing policies, or notice that some are missing, please contact a Beth Israel board member.
