JEWISH COMMUNITY RELATIONS COMMITTEE

Building Person-to-Person Bridges

THE JEWISH COMMUNITY RELATIONS COMMITTEE (JCRC) is a committee of the Jewish Federation of Greater Santa Barbara. Like more than 120 other JCRCs around the United States that are also members of the Jewish Council for Public Affairs’ national community relations network, Santa Barbara’s JCRC coordinates with other communities to advocate for a just and pluralistic American society, Israel’s quest for peace and security, and human rights around the world. Locally, the JCRC builds bridges to the larger community, speaks out against anti-Semitism and other forms of discrimination, and educates about, and advocates for, Israel.

The JCRC is committed to educating the larger community about significant topics of importance to Jewish people and to provide opportunities for Jews to learn about the interests and concerns of other communities in our area. For example, the JCRC now collaborates with several other local organizations to provide mental health services, mentoring, and career counseling to a group of Hispanic middle-school students who were traumatized by a recent gang-related shooting on Santa Barbara’s east side. Among other aspects of the program, students tour the Portraits of Survival exhibit at the Federation building.
