Adath Israel Congregation is a Conservative synagogue in North York, Toronto, located on Southbourne Avenue and serving the community with prayer services and religious education. The building functions as a gathering place and center for religious practice for families in the area.
The congregation was founded in 1903 by Romanian Jewish immigrants and relocated to its current North York location in 1957. This move reflected the growth and development of Toronto's Jewish community in the post-war period.

Since 2018, a Toronto-born rabbi has led the congregation, marking a notable moment in local Jewish history. This shows how the community has grown to develop its leadership from within.
