EMPOWER YOURSELF. EMPOWER OUR COMMUNITY.

The work of CJP’s Center for Combating Antisemitism is geared toward making antisemitism socially and politically unacceptable. Since October 7, we have accelerated and adapted the implementation of our 5-Point Plan to combat antisemitism and anti-Zionism to meet urgent needs in our community and leverage opportunities to make proactive and long-term impact in civic spaces, campuses, and schools.    

To empower our community and our allies, we’ve provided resources for you to enhance your knowledge, find like-minded groups working toward fostering a flourishing community, and discover opportunities for action and activism.  

Resources were curated in part in collaboration with the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism (FCAS).
