Partner-Provided Resources to Support You in Countering 

Antisemitism & All Forms of Hate

A global leader in combating antisemitism, countering extremism, and battling bigotry,

the Anti-Defamation League works to protect democracy and ensure a just and inclusive 

society for all. Founded in 1913, the organization’s timeless mission is “to stop the 

defamation of the Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment to all.” 

On Demand Learning Center

The On Demand Learning Center offers educators short, self-guided learning 

modules to help familiarize educators with ADL's anti-bias framework, core themes, 

and topics. A starting place can be this resource, Slurs and Biased Language

(available in Spanish and English). 

American Jewish Committee works to advance the safety and security of Jewish 

communities across the US and the world. AJC’s library of resources helps individuals 

understand, respond to, and prevent antisemitism. 

AJC’s Short Guide to Jewish Religion & Culture is intended to help foster a more 

inclusive workplace that offers you and your team useful tools for communicating 

with Jewish employees and/or students, and scheduling events in and around 

Jewish holidays. 

The Bard Center for the Study of Hate works to increase the serious study of human hatred 

and ways to combat it nationally and internationally. Founded in 2018, the center brings 

scholars from diverse disciplines together to study and address the human capacity to 

hate and demonize others. It also places, mentors, and supports students working at 

internships with organizations that combat hate, funds student-led senior projects related 

to the study of hate, and provides additional resources for research. 

A Community Guide for Opposing Hate is a toolkit released by BCSH in partnership 

with Western States Center and Montana Human Rights Network. It provides those 

who want to “do something” about hate the resources they need not only for the 

immediate aftermath of a hateful act, but for years to come to improve their 

community. While some of the strategies are reactive, the most important ones 

are proactive. 

The US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is responsible for enforcing federal 

laws that make it illegal to discriminate against a job applicant or an employee because 

of the person's race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy and related conditions, 

gender identity, and sexual orientation), national origin, age (40 or older), disability or 

genetic information. EEOC works to prevent discrimination before it occurs through 

outreach, education, and technical assistance programs. 

The Best Practices for Eradicating Religious Discrimination in the Workplace offers 

best practices for employers and employees on rights and responsibilities with 

respect to religious discrimination, including employment decisions, harassment,

Hillel International is the world’s largest Jewish campus organization, serving more than 

160,000 college students annually. Founded in 1923, the Hillel movement’s mission is to 

enrich the lives of Jewish students so they can, in turn, enrich the Jewish people, and the 

world. Hillel welcomes students of all backgrounds and identities, builds relationships that 

promote understanding among diverse groups, and builds vibrant Jewish campus 

communities while advocating for safe and supportive atmospheres on campus for all 

students. 

Understanding Antisemitism

The three-part video guide discusses how antisemitism impacts Jewish students on 

college campuses today. It introduces students, faculty, and staff to the origins of 

antisemitism, how it manifests today, and how they can confront antisemitism 

when they encounter it. These videos were designed to be viewed within the 

context of a larger educational curriculum. Hillel also offers consultations with 

educational institutions or organizations interested in the curriculum. 

Interfaith America, formerly known as Interfaith Youth Core, was founded in 2002 based 

on the idea that religious differences should serve as a bridge of cooperation rather than 

a barrier of division. Interfaith America’s mission is to inspire, equip, and connect leaders 

and institutions to unlock the potential of America’s religious diversity. Those from different 

religious and ethical perspectives often disagree over important issues. Interfaith 

cooperation relies on people of diverse perspectives identifying and holding up values 

that are shared across traditions. 

We Commemorate, We Commit Toolkit

The toolkit, released on the 20th anniversary of 9/11, offers resources and tools to 

mobilize your own civic, religious, and educational institutions and communities to 

continue to build an Interfaith America. Importantly, it acknowledges that the 

growth in anti-Muslim, anti-Sikh, and anti-Asian violence, is an affront to us all. As 

we endeavor to reduce bias and hate for one group, we make it possible for all 

marginalized communities to feel a sense of support and belonging. 

Shared Values Facilitation Guide

Shared values are at the heart of interfaith cooperation. Such values—like a 

dedication to serving others, caring for the environment, and offering hospitality—

are important because they allow those who might disagree profoundly on 

certain issues to find common ground for dialogue and action. The tool includes 

facilitation guidelines, texts focused on specific shared values, and a guide to 

developing your own shared values dialogue. 

Tanenbaum promotes justice and builds respect for religious difference by transforming 

individuals and institutions to reduce prejudice, hatred, and violence. As a secular and 

non-sectarian non-profit, Tanenbaum works to promote religious peacebuilders who help 

counter extremism and violence in armed conflicts, and tackles religious bullying of 

students, harassment in workplaces, and disparate health treatment for people based 

on their beliefs.

In February 2021, President Biden signed an executive order reestablishing the White 

House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships. The mission of this office is 

to serve people in need by collaborating with interested faith-based and community 

organizations. The Partnerships Office is an essential part of the Biden-Harris 

Administration’s plan to bring people of all backgrounds and beliefs together to meet 

our challenges, build a more perfect union, and restore the soul of our country. The 

Partnerships Office works with numerous federal agency Centers for Faith-Based and 

Neighborhood Partnerships, including AmeriCorps. 

Allied Against Hate: A Toolkit for Faith Communities

The White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, in 

cooperation with federal agency Centers for Faith-Based and Neighborhood 

Partnerships and diverse faith leaders, produced a toolkit for faith communities on 

standing in solidarity with other religious communities to combat antisemitism and 

other forms of hate.

The U.S. YMCA Movement began in 1851 and is present in all 50 States, DC and Puerto

providing the capacity-building, coordination, communication, and networking

and collaboration necessary to support local-based solutions across the country.

This tool was created to help prepare local YMCAs to work more effectively across

diverse faith and belief traditions. It is one resource among several that support

local YMCAs as they seek to better engage and serve diverse communities.

Team Up: A Bridgebuilding Initiative that Identifies Share Values to Achieve Shared 

Goals

The Team Up Project, a recent recipient of an AmeriCorps Volunteer Generation 

Grant, is a collaborative effort between Interfaith America, Habitat for Humanity, 

Catholic Charities, and YMCA advancing unity work at the local level. The effort 

will result in 30 unique projects, shaped by local needs and input, that help engage 

people and organizations across deep differences for the common good. Early 

progress with Team Up includes inspirational examples from First Coast YMCA’s
