This meeting is for Teens and Their Parents, we will be running two concurrent programs, followed by a pizza dinner.

The continued rise of antisemitism both in the U.S. and globally is cause for great concern. How can we prepare Jewish students to respond in the face of such hatred? ADL’s interactive education program  Words to Action® is designed to provide Jewish youth and college students the opportunity to increase their understanding and ability to address antisemitism.

Through interactive activities and discussion, participants in the Words to Action® program will:

Teens:

• Learn to explore their Jewish identity.

• Develop strategies to respond to antisemitic stereotypes and prejudices.

• Analyze antisemitism as a complex system that harms society at large.

• Champion a more equitable and just society through education, advocacy and allyship.

Parents:

• Information to help support your teen (what are the teens learning in their session

• Tips for talking about hate and Antisemitism

• Address concerns about antisemitism in schools
