The PJCC Allyship Program invites Jewish and non-Jewish community members into meaningful learning, honest conversation, and relationship-building across communities. In a time when many Jewish people have felt isolated or misunderstood, allyship begins with listening, learning, and showing up with care.

This program offers a thoughtful path into deeper understanding of Jewish history, identity, antisemitism, Israel, and the lived experiences of Jewish people today. 

Our 2026 Cohort meets Thursdays, 7 - 9 PM, from October 1 - January 7 (excluding major holidays).  Only a few spots remain.

Apply and learn more at pjcc.org/allyship.
