International Federation of Rabbis

Founded in 2000, the IFR is a professional organization of rabbis united by a commitment to Jewish tradition and a desire to facilitate the Jewish spiritual growth and life cycle needs of all. The IFR is not an alumni organization or movement; rather the IFR provides a progressive, pluralistic forum, linking member-rabbis in a spirit of friendship and a sense of community.
