Transgender
As the transgender community became larger and more visible, CBST acknowledged this important part of our congregation by expanding our mission to explicitly welcome transgender Jews.
A Short Trans History of CBST
Congregation Beth Simchat Torah (CBST) has informally welcomed transgender members of the community since its founding in 1973.

Marking Lifecycles at CBST
The clergy staff of CBST welcomes members who wish to mark lifecycles or ritual moments with us—lifecycles that are specific to transgender experience as well as those that are not.
