When DEI professionals need help understanding how and why they should incorporate combating antisemitism into their DEIBCA practice, I can help. We are committed to helping organizations combat antisemitism via training and consulting, especially in moments of crisis. Our multi-disciplinary team approaches this work with nuance, empathy, lived experience, and deep expertise. Our workshops have been adapted for moments of crisis and care. We have learned that antisemitism, the oldest ethnic hatred, fuels other types of bigotry and discrimination. Jewish ERGs should be in the cultural/ethnic bucket in your organization, not the religious one. I’m also happy to help guide the formation of your Jewish ERGs. Our clients include government agencies, Fortune 500 companies, top law and accounting firms, as well as campuses and nonprofits. Our antisemtism education course is the first and only one of its kind on LinkedIn Learning.
