The rare kaon decay program at BNL is summarized. A brief review of recent results is provided along with a discussion of prospects for the future of this program. The primary focus is the two golden modes: k+->pnn and kl->pnn. The first step in an ambitious plan to precisely measure both branching ratios has been successfully completed with the observation of two k+->pnn events by E787. The E949 experiment is poised to reach an order of magnitude further in sensitivity and to observe ~10 Standard Model events.
