Kol Ami Committees

Adult Jewish Education Committee
The Adult Jewish Education Committee works to broaden and deepen Jewish learning within our community, fostering a culture of lifelong learning among Kol Ami members.

Care & Concern / Inclusion Committee
The Care & Concern/Inclusion Committee provides comfort and assistance to members facing life challenges such as illness, disability, grief, or loneliness. It maintains important community support lists (e.g., Yahrzeit, healing, resources), coordinates transportation and meal assistance, helps with Shivas, and offers healing services. The committee’s Inclusion Team also works to improve accessibility at Kol Ami, ensuring all members can fully participate in congregational life.

Members & Visitors Team
The Members & Visitors Team offers a warm welcome to new and potential members, helping them find a meaningful place in our congregation. They also reach out to departing members for feedback on their experience. Each spring, the team oversees the Nominations process, encouraging congregants to consider leadership roles within Kol Ami.

Ritual Committee
The Ritual Committee plans and oversees Kol Ami’s religious services and holiday observances. Responsibilities include coordinating the ritual calendar, guiding service formats, addressing kashrut and food-related concerns, and maintaining holiday customs. Members with an interest in lay-led services or ritual leadership are encouraged to participate. This committee also works closely with Kol Ami’s rabbinic support.

Tikkun Olam Committee
The Tikkun Olam Committee leads Kol Ami’s efforts to put Jewish values into action through service and social justice. The committee identifies meaningful volunteer opportunities, organizes hands-on projects, and partners with local organizations to support those in need. Through initiatives such as food and clothing drives, environmental projects, and advocacy efforts, the committee helps our community live out our commitment to compassion, justice, and repairing the world.
