Friend,

Our team at Bend the Arc is very excited to bring you a special training with the Jewish experts on community safety.

The Community Safety Campaign is a national project led by Jewish organizers, political educators, researchers, healers, and spiritual leaders. Together, they spent three years researching solidarity practices that build safer communities without relying on relying on isolation or militarized security.

As the high holidays approach and our communities rise up against authoritarianism, we want to share this opportunity to learn from them:

From synagogues to cities: Creating community safety under authoritarianism
Thursday, September 4, 7pm ET
On Zoom

In this training, the Community Safety Campaign will share:

• Strategic recommendations and resources for Jewish organizations and communities to develop community safety plans and teams;
• How we can more effectively respond to antisemitic violence by building durable skills and mutual relationships of solidarity;
• Examples of community safety strategies from organizations nationally and globally putting values of “Safety Through Solidarity" into practice.

RSVP for “From synagogues to cities: Creating community safety under authoritarianism” on Thursday, September 4, at 7pm ET.

I hope to see you there,

Jillian Lipman 
Antisemitism Campaign Manager, Bend the Arc
