The Federation launched the community's collaborative security initiative this summer when it hired Community Security Director, Al Tribble. Al acts as an expert security advisor, liaison, and training coordinator for the community. His work focuses on implementing a strategic approach to community security, support, and consultation to Jewish institutions, and rollout of trainings and assessments.

Al has begun conducting site assessments, visiting with community leadership, and setting about the initial work of this project.

As we move into the High Holidays where safety and security are top of mind, we want to share some events that you can join in the coming weeks. 

Upcoming Online SCN Trainings

Secure Community Network (SCN) is our partner in this work. SCN was established by the Jewish Federations of North America and the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations to be the official homeland security and safety initiative of the organized American Jewish community.

SCN is making available the following trainings prior to the High Holidays. To register, click on the image below to select the training(s) you would like to participate in from the list on their site.

Federation Security Website

We have also launched a security webpage on our website. There, you can find information about upcoming events and trainings, as well as resources on how to handle incidents.
