About Chabad of Brooklyn Heights
Chabad Lubavitch of Brooklyn Heights is a community based organization servicing the needs of the Jewish populations of Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, Red Hook, Columbia Waterfront and Downtown Brooklyn.

Chabad provides prayer services, holiday programs and events, and support and assistance to all, regardless of affiliation or background. We offer services to singles, families and seniors alike. Our aim is to encourage and enhance Jewish awareness, knowledge and observance by building a warm, welcoming community with activities appealing to both members and non-members.

Congregation B’nai Avraham, the synagogue we’re located in and partnered with, is the only synagogue in the area that provides daily Shacharit and Maariv services, as well as daily classes on every possible subject for men and women alike, from Talmud to Kabbalah, as well as a luxurious women's state-of-the-art Community Mikvah on the premises.
