Founded in 1968, Havurat Shalom is an egalitarian Jewish community in Somerville, Massachusetts, where women and men come to pray and learn; explore, celebrate and grapple with Jewish tradition; work for social justice; and discuss a variety of Jewish concerns.

Services at Havurat Shalom are egalitarian, lay-led and usually involve a lot of singing.
