The Yeshivah Centre a.k.a. Chabad Institutions of Victoria Limited is a Chabad umbrella organization in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, that serves the needs of the Melbourne Jewish community. It is run under the administration of Rabbi Zvi Telsner, and previously under Rabbi Yitzchok Dovid Groner.
In 2017, the organization was visited by the Chief Rabbi of Israel. Chief Rabbi David Lau attended various venues in Melbourne on his Australia tour.[1]
The centre has been accused of covering up claims of sexual abuse at their institution[2][3] and of retaliating against whistleblowers and victims.[2][4]
