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.
