Yeshivat Maharat, located in Bronx, NY, is a pioneering institution that was established in 2009 as the first yeshiva to ordain women as Orthodox clergy. By offering a credentialed pathway for women to serve as clergy, Yeshivat Maharat aims to enhance the community's ability to attract top-tier rabbinic leaders and foster a more diverse range of voices, thoughts, and perspectives.
With a focus on providing rigorous semikha programs for Orthodox women, as well as offering a variety of other educational initiatives such as the Beit Midrash Program and the Bioethics and Halakha Series, Yeshivat Maharat is dedicated to empowering women to become leaders and rabbis in the Orthodox Jewish community.
