interfaith rabbis, interfaith ketubah

Welcome to the Rabbinic Center for Research and Counseling.

Founded in 1970, the Rabbinic Center for Research and Counseling is:

  • first organization established to promote research on intermarriage and to serve the needs of intermarrying and intermarried couples. 
  • It is still the only national or international organization that advocates and encourages rabbinic officiation at intermarriage ceremonies.

The Rabbinic Center provides:

  • a list of rabbis who officiate at intermarriages,
  • conducts and promotes research on intermarriage,
  • offers premarital and marital therapy for intermarried couples and their families,
  • and presents a variety of programs specifically geared to the needs of intermarried couples. 

Our most popular programs are the:

Workshop on Raising Children in the Intermarried Home

Sabbath Couples Group

The Rabbinic Center also serves as an outpatient mental health facility for area residents.  

A multi-disciplinary staff of licensed mental health practitioners provide ongoing individual and group psychotherapy, as well as marriage and family therapy, on a sliding fee scale.
