Chag Sameach from ADL!
Last week we entered the Jewish New Year to greet 5782. Next week the Jewish community will start Sukkot where we welcome others into our Sukkah for the weeklong holiday that celebrates the gathering of the harvest and commemorates the years spent dwelling in the desert after escaping from Egypt.
This year we are especially mindful of the crisis in Afghanistan that has caused suffering and displacement for hundreds of thousands of Afghan people. You can practice Tikkun Olam – repairing our world – in the coming year by stretching out the hand of welcome to Afghan refugees.

Additionally, Greg Ehrie, Vice President of Law Enforcement & Analysis at ADL and former U.S. Air Force officer, wrote an article on

reclaiming the unity we found after 9/11 in a post-January 6 America.
It is time to join others in a search for renewal, as we fight hate together stronger.
