Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

JCRB/AJC is the Jewish community advocate for combating antisemitism and pursuing justice.

Activities or mission (Part I)

JCRB/AJC is the Jewish Community Advocate for combatting antisemitism and pursuing justice. We build reciprocal Interfaith & Inter-Group relationships to advance issues of common concern; advocate and educate about antisemitism, Israel, and extremism to key players in government & civic society.

  • JCRB|AJC continues to grow its Community Relations efforts, including ongoing support for the Strangers No More program, engagement with interfaith clergy, and participation in events such as the annual MLK Interfaith Service. This year, the organization distributed Jewish holiday calendars to over 4,000 partners, including 44 local schools and school districts. JCRB|AJC Educational and Advocacy Programs experienced strong participation throughout the year. Highlights included A Year Without: October 7 Memorial, the Intro to Advocacy workshop for KC's ACCESS chapter, and Driving Out Darkness in the Heartland: 2024 Regional Summit on Combating Antisemitism. Our educational outreach expanded significantly, establishing new partnerships with both K-12 schools and universities across the region. Our Making Space program continues to provide impactful training for companies and organizations seeking to foster Jewish inclusion and cultural competency among employees. In Government Relations, JCRB|AJC marked Jewish American Heritage Month with targeted outreach and advocacy. We also deepened relationships with congressional offices and built meaningful connections with local, state, and federal officials to advance our mission.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
