About Us
WHC was established in 1852 when the streets of Washington were unpaved
and the Capitol building was only half finished. From our earliest
beginnings, we have provided a spiritual, educational, and cultural home
to Reform Jews in the Washington, D.C. area. As a community, we have
prayed together, celebrated together, and stood together in the face of
life's challenges. We have raised our voices in protest in the face of
injustice. When people have been hungry, we provided sustenance; in
times of crisis, we have worked to strengthen resolve. Whether it is
marching to promote civil rights or fighting against atrocity and
genocide around the world, tikkun olam has been a cornerstone of our community.
