Core Communities of Practice

A Core Community of Practice connects women who share the same communal role, so a kallah teacher finds other kallah teachers, a shul rebbetzin finds other rebbetzins, a chevra kadisha member finds others who sit with that same sacred work.

You may be the only one in your role in your community;

you’re not the only one doing this work.

Within each Community of Practice, members engage in facilitated discussions, Torah-based professional development tailored to their work, collaborative problem-solving, and meaningful peer relationships that strengthen both the individual and the field as a whole.

Members also enjoy access to Core’s growing online library of recordings and resources, regional in-person gatherings, and conferences that deepen collaboration, inspire new ideas, and foster lasting connections.

Online resource library: Recordings of the professional development sessions offered since the Community’s inception and community materials, available any time to members.
