The Chicago Community Kollel is an institute for advanced Torah Studies operating out of a beautiful new facility in West Rogers Park. It is committed to serving the educational and spiritual needs of all Jews in the Greater Chicago area, and through our website, Jews the world over.
A kollel is a generic term describing a center of Torah learning where a group of married men pursue full-time post graduate work in Talmudic law. There are kollels in most major cities in America and around the world. There are literally hundreds of kollels in Israel.
A community kollel is a kollel which serves the greater Jewish community in which it is based. Besides the core group of men who learn full-time during the day, members of the community are invited to learn one on one with a member of the kollel over lunch break or in the evening, or to attend classes given at the kollel or at other locations.
Take a look at our schedule of classes and services offered and you will find something that appeals to you. Whether it is the Buffet of Jewish Thought featuring fine cuisine and a discussion on contemporary Jewish issues, our weekly email called the Jewish Heritage Question of the Week, our popular five week Crash course in Hebrew or our Meditative Prayer class, the Chicago Community Kollel is here to help you grow spiritually.
