Resources to Fight Antisemitism @ Jewish United Fund

This is an intense and painful time for our Jewish community.

As a wave of anti-Jewish hate sweeps the nation, we are leading the charge to fight antisemitism—and to promote Jewish pride.

Acts of antisemitism in the U.S. hit a record high in 2021, a 34% increase over 2020 and more incidents than any other year since the ADL began tracking antisemitic acts in 1979—that's 100% too many. Learn more about these incidents here.

If you see or are subjected to antisemitism, report it immediately.

Here's what JUF is doing—and some resources on how you can learn more and help:

Employing social media to fight antisemitism and promote Jewish pride.

Continually use our voice and expertise to connect with all major media outlets in the city as a resource and, when needed, for on-air interviews.
Equipping college, high school and middle school students with resources to understand the language and advocate for Israel—and themselves as American Jews.
