AJC Empowers Parents and Caregivers
AJC supports parents and caregivers in making their children ’ s educational settings safer and more inclusive for Jewish and pro-Israel students . We provide resources , tools , and trainings to help parents successfully advocate with school administrators , navigate conversations with faculty members , and foster community and allyship within the school ’ s ecosystem .
AJC Empowers a New Generation of Jewish Leaders
AJC engages high school and college students as well as young professionals to help build a new generation of proud advocates for the Jewish community and Israel .
Young Jews bear the brunt of rising antisemitism , and that hate grew more pervasive and more vicious following Hamas ’ atrocities against the Israeli people on October 7 . AJC works to educate and empower young activists , so they are ready to combat anti-Jewish hate , defend Israel , and advocate for themselves and the Jewish people .

Central to our work with teens is our innovative and award-winning Leaders for Tomorrow ( LFT ) program , which gives students the tools and information needed to understand and articulate the important issues impacting world Jewry today . It also provides them with the leadership skills and confidence to advance these issues in high school and throughout their lives . LFT boasts more than 2,000 alumni across the United States .
