Combatting Antisemitism
At Hamilton Jewish Federation, we are aware of the alarming rise of antisemitism in our community. Ensuring the safety and security of every Jewish individual and advocate is our foremost priority. We are steadfast in our commitment to creating an environment where every member feels empowered and safe to speak up for what is right. It is imperative that every Jewish person feels secure and welcomed in the city they call home.
To combat antisemitism, we must report it. By doing so, we can disrupt the cycle of hate and protect our community. It is important that law enforcement and the Hamilton Jewish Federation are informed about these incidents so an analysis can be made to ensure appropriate actions are taken.
To make it easy for you, we’ve created this form as a means to report any incidents of antisemitism, ensuring swift action and support for those affected.
