The Ultimate Kindness - Chevra Kadisha and Torah (New Educational Video)

This educational resource is intended to serve as a guide for the individuals in communities who have the responsibility of providing a tehara for the deceased. It can also be a valuable educational tool for those who may be considering the formation of a Chevra Kadisha.


This project was a joint effort of the Tripartite Commission on Jewish Funeral Standards, comprised of The Jewish Funeral Directors of America, The Orthodox Union, and the Rabbinical Council of America.
