John,

The program that provides grants to protect our Jewish institutions is still frozen and we need your voice.

“Our small shul had to borrow $50K to tide us over until we received the reimbursement money,” an Oregon congregation writes. “From armed security guards, placing the right cameras around the facility to adding barriers in some of our most vulnerable places. These grant dollars are essential to our safety,” an Illinois congregation shares.

Across the country, congregations rely on the Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP) to keep their communities safe. With antisemitism at the highest levels we’ve seen in decades — we must equip our communities to respond to violence and hate.

This grant funding provides critical resources to Jewish and faith-based institutions to protect themselves from extremist threats such as bomb scares, harassment, cyber-attacks and vandalism. We must take action to protect NSGP.

Tell the White House to Protect Funding to Keep Jewish Communities Safe from Hate

Nonprofit Security Grant Program funding affects thousands of places of worship, community centers and religious schools. We cannot force Jewish institutions to choose between safety and community. When we protect NSGP, we protect houses of worship.

Join ADL in urging the White House to Protect the Nonprofit Security Grant Program.

Sincerely, 
Carmiel Arbit 
ADL Vice President of Government Relations

P.S.: If your community is impacted by the freeze, please let us know.
