In a shared vision to rid the community of hatred and bias, the Jewish Community Alliance (JCA) and First Coast YMCA have teamed up for “Together Against Hate: Promoting Unity in Our Community” series of events. The initiative, designed to educate and inspire a more inclusive community, along with a renewed effort to ignite unity throughout Northeast Florida.
Through unique conversations and educational gatherings, Together Against Hate events will address important topics impacting the community like youth mental health, Jew-hatred, and human trafficking among others. Together Against Hate will once again include a visual display of camaraderie at the “Racing Against Hate 5K Run/Walk.”
Please reference our Together Against Hate speaker schedule below and mark your community calendars to join us as we inspire our neighbors to create a safe and welcoming community.
