ABOUT OUR CHEVRA KADISHA

The Chevrot Kadisha organizations in Santa Fe and Los Alamos decided to come together into one organization in 2006, under the auspices of the Jewish Community Council of Northern New Mexico. Among our activities:

• We help each other perform Taharot throughout Northern New Mexico

• We hold common training and educational sessions

• We provide outreach to Jewish and general community about Jewish burial customs

• We provide consistent guidance to local mortuaries about Jewish customs

• We share resources and materials.
