Kehilla Community Synagogue, based in Piedmont, California, is a religious organization dedicated to Jewish renewal. It serves about 900 members and engages thousands through programs, classes, and social justice work. Founded in 1984, Kehilla is described as the West Coast’s largest Jewish Renewal organization, with activities rooted in Jewish spiritual teachings and practice on the Lisjan Ohlone territory of Huchiun. Its programs blend Jewish spiritual practice with social justice engagement and communal support, addressing needs in the Bay Area and beyond. In May 2020, the synagogue announced a partnership with Centralamericadata to support four young transgender women from Mexico and Central America who fled persecution and sought asylum.
