In anticipation of the 2024-25 school year, ADL has launched several new and updated resources to support educators, students and their families, particularly in the event that antisemitic incidents occur. Because ADL has tracked a significant rise in antisemitic incidents across the country, we wanted to preemptively offer these resources in the event you are faced with antisemitism this school year.
For more information about any of these programs, including how to schedule a training for your school, please contact mountainstates@adl.org.
