In 2024, JIJ Inc. supported the provision of free legal aid to 2,733 survivors of terrorism, human trafficking, and discrimination, including 40 survivors of human trafficking, 17 survivors of the October 7th massacre, 170 new immigrant families, and 112 refugees from Ukraine, Russia, and Eritrea.

Public Diplomacy and Education. JIJ leveraged its United Nations consultative status to present forensic evidence and survivor testimony to senior UN officials and diplomats from over 23 countries, securing recognition of the scale and scope of Hamas' atrocities against Israeli children, women, and the elderly. In 2024, JIJ also completed post-production of its 1-hour documentary "Saturday October 7th," featuring the testimonies of seven survivors of the October 7th massacre. The film is available for free screenings on U.S. college and university campuses, promoting awareness and countering denialism. JIJ's internship and education programs trained 33 university students from 16 countries, focused on combatting antisemitism and countering pro-terror agendas. Over the last 20 years, JIJ has hosted more than 400 interns and fellows from 20 countries, equipping them with the tools to advocate for justice, human dignity, and the rule of law.

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.
