Building a safer community takes all of us. JShield’s practical security trainings help everyone feel more prepared and confident during the High Holidays and beyond.

These training sessions will share simple, helpful tips to:

  • Stay aware of your surroundings
  • Respond effectively in an emergency
  • Understand safety considerations specific to the High Holidays.

While there are no indications of specific threats to our community or institutions at this time, we are all aware of the generally heightened threat environment the Jewish community has been living under for some time.  We’ve trained and prepared countless institutions and the general community over the last several weeks, but this is a good time to review your emergency procedures, remain vigilant (as always), and report anything suspicious to JShield and law enforcement as appropriate.

Like all JShield services, this training is offered at no cost to participating Jewish organizations thanks to the generosity of donors to The Jewish Federation of Greater Washington. Their support helps ensure every Jewish organization has access to expert security resources, regardless of size or budget.

If you’d like to help sustain this work, we invite you to make a gift to Federation’s Annual Campaign.
