Timed during Jewish American Heritage Month, the trip brought together Federation staff, JCRC leaders, and community advocates to meet directly with members of Washington’s congressional delegation.
Today, we need you to add your voice to ours by calling on our elected leaders to support The Jewish American Security Act.
We have created a collection of educational resources that you can share with your community leaders, your school administration and educators, and elected representatives so they can engage with Jewish American Heritage Month.
Join the Federation and the Weitzman National Museum of American Jewish History for a presentation about their new curriculum, Stories That Shaped a Nation: Jewish Lives in America.
Last month, the Federation launched Shared Table, a pilot program bringing together dozens of Jews from across Greater Seattle with diverse religious and political perspectives.
A four-part webinar series designed to help Jewish communal leaders, professionals, and community members better understand the complex and evolving landscape of immigration policy and enforcement.
This session, our team pushed forward to advance Jewish safety and belonging and uphold civil liberties and human rights.
May is Jewish American Heritage Month, making it a particularly meaningful opportunity to educate our elected officials about our Jewish community and talk about the issues that matter to us. The Federation’s Jewish Community Relations Council will be doing an advocacy fly-in to Washington, D.C., in May, and we hope you can join us!
The specific legislative priorities were developed based on input from the JCRC Public Advocacy Committee, our lobbyist, legislators, coalition partners within and beyond the Jewish community, and form the basis of our advocacy in this legislative session.
As I woke up this morning preparing for the start of Chanukah, I was instead greeted with headlines of a mass shooting at a Chanukah celebration on Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia. The Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle, and Jewish Federations across the country, are horrified by this antisemitic terrorist attack.
