The U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, incorporating various recommendations from AJC, outlines over a dozen measures to combat the concerning surge of antisemitism on college campuses. In the fall of 2023, the U.S. Department of Education will launch an Antisemitism Awareness Campaign, ensuring that schools heed complaints of discrimination against Jewish students, and AJC will continue to work closely with university administrators and secondary school administrators nationwide to help effectively enact the recommendations this coming academic year.
The AJC Task Force to Implement The U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, is comprised of more than 35 AJC leaders across America and over 50 professional staff from 14 departments, prioritizes our efforts and oversees AJC advocacy work as it relates to recommendations from the National Strategy.
