The International Federation of Rabbis (IFR) was founded in 2000 as a rabbinic association which provides a much needed service to rabbis worldwide. The vision of the IFR is to function as a practical resource for rabbis of all backgrounds who want and need a forum to examine and adapt to a changing Judaism in the 21st century. IFR members stay connected with their colleagues worldwide through a private list serve, private interactive website, which contains a Jewish resource library, and a newsletter published four times a year. From time to time the IFR hosts a rabbinic  conference in Delray Beach, Florida.

IFR's rabbis have been noted within and outside of the Jewish community for the diverse backgrounds and perspectives they bring to Jewish pastoral care.

Conferences

IFR hosts a biyearly conference for its members at which various topics in Jewish pastoral care and Torah scholarship are discussed.
