Chevra Kadisha
The greatest act of giving is to give to those who do not know you gave and can not return the gift. So the act of caring for the dead is a great honor. Our dedicated Chevra Kadisha cares for the bodies of the deceased with love and respect, preparing them for burial. For more information please reach out below.

Ritual Committee
The CABI Ritual Committee helps plan and coordinate ritual observance from Shabbat worship to the High Holidays. Deep Jewish knowledge is not necessary to participate, sometimes we just need to move chairs.
Facilities Committee
The CABI Facilities Committee handles approved work requests. Work includes everything to do with preventive maintenance and upgrades to the facility. The committee also handles the fire inspections and backflow inspections. Some work is self-performed and other work is subcontracted to licensed professionals. Everything from changing out lightbulbs to calling a plumber is what we do for CABI.

In addition to providing internment plot options, the Cemetery Committee supports, sustains, and preserves the local Jewish cemeteries for CABI and the greater Jewish community at Morris Hill and Terrace Lawn.
