Adat Chaverim's mission is to provide opportunities for residents of the Greater Los Angeles area to express and nurture Jewish cultural identity and a sense of Jewish community within a nontheistic context.

Adat Chaverim is moving in the right direction!

Beginning with the High Holidays in 2008, Adat Chaverim will celebrate all of its Shabbat and holiday festivities at the American Jewish University (formerly known as the University of Judaism).  Large scale events like Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur Services will be held in the beautiful and traditional Mathew Berman Chapel, with its wooden benches and woven wall hangings. More intimate gatherings will take place in the private dining room featuring a wall of windows overlooking the lights of the San Fernando Valley.  The AJU is eager to welcome Adat onto its campus.

The most important benefit offered by the upcoming move to AJU promises to be its phenomenal location right off the 405 Freeway in the Sepulveda Pass. Cultural Jews throughout the Greater Los Angeles Area will experience an easy commute whether they are coming from the San Fernando Valley or the West Side. This will make it more realistic for a much larger portion of the population to attend Adat’s rich cultural offerings on a regular basis.

For more information about AJU, including directions for how to get there, click here or on the picture of the AJU campus.
