The Rabbinical Association of Greater Kansas City includes Orthodox, Conservative, Reform, Reconstructionist and non-Denominational rabbis who serve as the rabbinic voice in and for the Jewish community and the larger Greater Kansas City community.

It guides the community in making religious decisions for community events, and provides information, education and leadership on Jewish and interfaith issues. Additionally, it supports the rabbis in their personal and professional growth and develops and nourishes collegial relationships within the Association.

The Kansas City metropolitan area, Jewish and non-Jewish, is extremely fortunate to have this long standing Association of good will and united action.

The Rabbinical Association was incorporated June 17, 2002. The Association existed as an unincorporated, entirely voluntary, sometimes very loose knit group for about 25 years. The first regular gatherings date to the mid 1970's.

Over the years, the Rabbis in Greater Kansas City have established a pattern of community-wide collaboration and have been called upon to provide information, guidance, and leadership on both Jewish and interfaith issues. Today, the rabbis meet monthly, functioning as a board of directors, dealing with issues brought to them by the community and issues and programs of their own initiative.
