History

Rabbi Ellen Lippmann established Kolot Chayeinu, a progressive Jewish synagogue in Brooklyn in 1993, initially as a small group of people that met around her dining room table.^[1] Over the years it has grown to have its own space and staff, including a rabbi and cantor (both ordained), 300+ members, and a Children's Learning Program.
