Tools for Addressing Antisemitism

Resources and Tools for Addressing Antisemitism

Right now, young people are trying to navigate the world as anti-Israel and sometimes antisemitic protests on college campuses are increasing, forcing classes and finals online and canceling graduations at universities across the country. This activity is now taking place at high schools as well.

At the heart of Jewish Federation of Greater Houston’s work, we prioritize our community’s physical and psychological safety and protect Jewish life in Houston, Israel, and around the world. We fight antisemitism through security trainings and safety consultations, through teen programming, through advocacy at the state and local levels, through educational trips, presentations, and conversations, and by working with our local and national agency partners. Many parents have reached out to learn more about how to support their own student-aged children, and we wanted to provide the following resources:
