VACCINATION AND MASK POLICY AS OF AUGUST 22, 2022
While we continue to recommend that all individuals who are eligible stay up to date with vaccinations, vaccination for COVID-19 is no longer required in order to enter the CAI building. Vaccination protects against severe disease and is a Jewish value consistent with caring for your own health and safety in addition to considering the well-being of the entire community.
Masks will remain optional for all CAI programs and services - both inside and out of the building - including the High Holy Days.
There are designated mask required sections in the Sanctuary. These sections may have less traffic and will be close to alternative entrances into and out of the synagogue. These sections are marked by signs with CAI's mask required logo. Please note that mask required sections provide limited additional protection while indoors for an extended period of time.
When shiva services occur in people’s homes, the families may share their own requests for COVID safety. We ask that all community members respect those wishes.
MAIN OFFICE HOURS The Main Office will be closed from 10:30 am to 1:30 pm on Wednesday, Nov. 30. The staff will be volunteering at Toni's Kitchen. Monday through Thursday from 9 am to 4 pm
Friday from 9 am to 2 pm

AN ERUV IN THE GREATER CALDWELL COMMUNITY? Borrowing from the Oxford dictionary, an eruv is "an urban area enclosed by a wire boundary which symbolically extends the private domain of Jewish households into public areas" specifically for the purpose of enabling the carrying of objects and the transporting of individuals (i.e., in strollers and wheelchairs) on Shabbat. We are excited to work to make this happen. Please email CAIERUV@AGUDATH.ORG to inquire and join the effort.
