Assistive Listening Devices (ALDs)
ALDs are available for use in the Wolman Sanctuary. They are kept in a basket next to the bimah when you first come in the doors from the Juniper Street side. Look for a small black box about the size of a deck of cards, connected by a wire to an earpiece. You do not need a hearing aid to use an ALD.

ASL Interpretation
ASL interpretation can be provided for services upon request.

 There is a ramp located at the Juniper Street entrance. 
• The Wolman Bimah is accessible via electronic lift.
• An elevator stops at all levels of the building except the Wolman Sanctuary balcony.
• The Cherner Auditorium has a ramp down to the lower level.

Bathrooms
There are accessible bathrooms on the main level and the Cherner Auditorium level.
