Source:

This guide from the Jewish Community Relations Bureau | American Jewish Committee (JCRB|AJC) serves as a strategic roadmap for addressing the surge of antisemitism in the Heartland region. Drawing on insights from the “Driving Out Darkness in the Heartland” summit and aligned with the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, it provides actionable, sector-specific toolkits—tailored for government officials, workplaces, schools, and interfaith partners—to foster education, enhance security, and build cross-community solidarity. By emphasizing a “whole-of-society” approach, the document empowers local leaders and citizens to move beyond awareness toward concrete, collaborative actions to combat hate and discrimination.
