- Dynamic speakers and presentations: Request a speaker on Judaism, Jewish identity, antisemitism, Israel and more. As the consensus public affairs voice of the Jewish community, we are invited into schools, businesses, faith and community organizations and gatherings across Minnesota, the Dakotas and beyond to introduce, educate, and support allyship with a people only 0.2% of the world’s population.
- Israel Study Tour for Minnesota Legislators and Community Leaders: Since 2016, the JCRC has led 3 Israel trips for Minnesota state legislators and other community leaders with the purpose of educating Minnesota elected officials on the importance of a strong partnership between Minnesota and Israel, as well as to build trusted relationships with Minnesota’s elected officials. Our trip in November 2019 was our largest and most bipartisan delegation to date.
