(jewishpressgulfcoast.com) - During the seminar, Irv Varkonyi will present an overview of FJMC’s comprehensive efforts to understand and confront the rise of antisemitism across North America.
His presentation will offer practical tools for clubs, regions and individuals, including strategies to:
• Advocate effectively with local and national legislators
• Partner with Jewish day schools and religious schools
• Engage FJMC partners such as ADL and Blue Square Alliance
• Support public schools and colleges in reducing antisemitic incidents
• Create and sponsor meaningful workshops within local communities
The FJMC Committee to Combat Antisemitism was established just prior to the organization’s 2023 Philadelphia Convention — months before the tragic October 7 attack in Israel.

Today, every FJMC club and region is encouraged — and empowered — to implement programming that addresses and responds to this growing challenge.
