Va'ad HaRabanim
of Greater Seattle

Serving Greater Seattle’s Kosher Needs and More…

The Va’ad takes care of Kashrut issues and education, gives supervision on various kosher products and establishments, provides certificates for Meshulachim, and functions as a Bet Din (religious court) facilitating and issuing conversions (through the RCA), and hearing legal and quasi-legal disputes. Gittin (religious divorces) are now handled through the Va’ad office.
