JFed Security 

JFed Security 

The security of our Jewish community is one of our top priorities. Your Federation is proud  to ensure we can all attend services, visit the JCC and seek help at JFS in safety. This is made possible by Jewish Federations of North America’s LiveSecure grant funding, state and federal non-profit security grants and private donors.

 

A Commitment to Community Security

Incidents of antisemitism and hate speech have increased drastically over the last several years, particularly since October 7, 2023.  The Jewish Federation of West-Central New Jersey is dedicated to ensuring that our community in Somerset, Hunterdon & Warren Counties is a place for Jews to live safely and proudly, and participate in activities and events at the Jewish Federation, our agencies, and area synagogues.

We are stronger together, and JFed Security is committed to ensuring our community’s safety.
