<[link removed]>Friend,

If we haven’t met yet, my name is Enzi — I’m helping lead next week’s training, From synagogues to cities: Creating community safety under authoritarianism. <[link removed]>

I’ve been an organizer and trainer for 20 years. I see everyday how violence is a part of our lives all across this nation, like yesterday’s shooting during mass at a Catholic school in my city of Minneapolis.

As we watch and mourn attacks on our neighbors, the importance of learning how to keep our communities safe cannot be overstated. I hope you’ll join me for the training next week on how to keep our organizations, synagogues, neighborhoods, and families safe:

From synagogues to cities: Creating community safety under authoritarianism <[link removed]>
Thursday, September 4, 7pm ET
On Zoom

<[link removed]>RSVP HERE <[link removed]>I’ll be leading the training alongside my peers in the Jewish Community Safety Campaign — a national project led by Jewish organizers, political educators, researchers, healers, and spiritual leaders.

In the training, we’ll share our new findings from three years researching solidarity practices that build safer communities without relying on isolation or militarized security, including:

- Strategic recommendations and resources for Jewish organizations and communities to develop community safety plans
- Ways to effectively respond to antisemitic violence by building durable skills and mutual relationships of solidarity
- Examples of community safety strategies from organizations that put 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. <[link removed]>

In solidarity,

Enzi Tanner 
Training and Content Manager, Bend the Arc
