About JAC
The Jewish Alliance of Colorado (JAC) is a grassroots, Zionist organization dedicated to strengthening Colorado's Jewish community through advocacy, education, and community action. We have earned our credibility through meaningful action and measurable results. Guided by a nonpartisan mission, JAC stands with Israel, combats antisemitism, and supports Jews and allies across Colorado. We are committed to ensuring Jewish voices are heard, respected, and protected while building a stronger, more resilient Jewish future.
Advocacy
JAC advocates for Colorado's Jewish community at the local and state levels, engaging with elected officials, schools, community leaders, and public institutions on the issues that matter most. Through education, outreach, and strategic advocacy, we work to protect Jewish rights, strengthen support for Israel, and ensure the concerns of Colorado's Jewish community are represented in public policy and civic life.
A Trusted Voice for Colorado's Jewish Community
JAC serves as a trusted voice for Colorado's Jewish community through media engagement, public education, and community leadership. We amplify Jewish perspectives on critical issues, ensuring our community is represented in the public conversation. We remain committed to defending Jewish rights, combating misinformation, and ensuring Jewish voices are never ignored or silenced.
Supporting K–12 Students and Families
JAC works alongside parents, students, educators, and school administrators to address antisemitism, curriculum concerns, and the challenges facing Jewish families throughout Colorado. We advocate for safe, inclusive learning environments where Jewish students can thrive academically and confidently express their Jewish identity.
Supporting Jewish Students on College Campuses
From responding to antisemitic incidents and campus hostility to advocating for accountability from university leadership, JAC is committed to protecting Jewish students across Colorado's colleges and universities. We work to ensure campuses remain places where Jewish students can participate fully and safely without fear of discrimination or intimidation.
Community Support
When members of Colorado's Jewish community face antisemitism, discrimination, or other challenges, JAC connects them with trusted resources and organizations that can provide assistance. We believe no member of our community should have to navigate these challenges alone.
Supporting Jewish Businesses
JAC stands with Jewish-owned businesses facing antisemitism, harassment, vandalism, or organized boycotts. We work with business owners, community partners, and local leaders to help amplify their voices, strengthen community support, and ensure Jewish businesses remain an important part of Colorado's economic and cultural landscape.
Supporting Jewish Arts and Culture
Jewish artists, filmmakers, performers, and creators have increasingly faced exclusion and discrimination because of their identity or support for Israel. JAC is committed to creating opportunities that celebrate Jewish creativity, promote cultural expression, and ensure Jewish voices continue to enrich Colorado's artistic community.
Community Building and Education
JAC hosts educational programs, advocacy initiatives, cultural events, volunteer opportunities, and community gatherings throughout Colorado. Our events strengthen relationships, foster Jewish pride, support Israel, and create meaningful opportunities for people of all backgrounds to connect, learn, and take action together.
