JCRCAs the public affairs voice of the Jewish community, the JCRC fights antisemitism and prejudice, advocates for Israel, provides Holocaust education, promotes tolerance and social justice, and builds bridges across the Jewish and broader communities.
Featuring Dr. Mijal Bitton
Jewish Identity and Community in a Changing World.
Since October 7, American Jews have faced a transformed landscape—challenging how we see ourselves, our communities, and our future. JCRC keynote speaker Dr. Mijal Bitton – a spiritual leader, community builder, and sociologist – explored what’s changed, what it means, and how we move forward together.
Dr. Bitton illuminated the shifts reshaping Jewish life, highlighing paths toward resilience, and offering a vision for thriving—not just surviving—in this new environment. Together, we showed how Jews and allies can foster strength and understanding, individually and societally, in a complex moment.
