There is a place that shares your ideals.<br />
A place where women believe in their heads and in<br />
their hearts that things can and should be better.<br />
It is the National Council of Jewish Women.<br />
And now, it’s more important than ever that<br />
compassionate women find a place to come<br />
together and take a stand.<br />
OUR SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL<br />
For more than 60 years, <strong>NCJW</strong> has the reputation as the foremost<br />
progressive US Jewish women’s organization dedicated to women’s<br />
empowerment and gender equality in Israel.<br />
Israel Granting Program: <strong>NCJW</strong> awards grants to organizations and<br />
programs that address women’s rights, education, social justice, human<br />
trafficking and domestic violence. Through Yad B’Yad (Hand in Hand with<br />
Israel), <strong>NCJW</strong> provides grants for literacy childhood development and<br />
enrichment for disadvantaged children and families.<br />
Advocacy and Coalition Work: <strong>NCJW</strong> is a member of numerous coalitions<br />
that aim to ensure the rights and well being of Israeli women, children and<br />
families. We are involved in social action and advocacy issues in the areas of<br />
poverty, hunger, tolerance, co-existence, the promotion of equal citizenship<br />
for all Israelis and women’s empowerment.<br />
Commitment to Education: Our two most notable programs are the <strong>NCJW</strong><br />
Women and Gender Studies Program at Tel Aviv University and<br />
the <strong>NCJW</strong> Research Institute for Innovation in<br />
Education (RIFIE) at Hebrew University.
