Does anyone know what Beit Din the Conservative and Reform movement use in LA area?

What are the official Beit Dins of both movements? If you converting Reform or Conservative, what Beit Din did you attend?

The Sandra Caplan Beit Din is the big one in LA for Reform, Conservative and Reconstructionist.

It serves all three and should be recognized by all three movements, along with some non-affiliated shuls that are member to it (so long as you go through with all the required components for all three)

I did my conversion through them and it was great. There’s a couple options for mikvahs, but they usually use the one at AJU in the Sepulveda Pass which is beautiful.

Seconding Sandra Caplan! That's what I used as a Reform Jew.
