Local Advocacy The JCRC of Greater Washington is the chief government advocate and community relations resource for our Jewish community. We partner with local and state organizations in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, DC to reach out to government officials to advance the legislative agenda of our community in the Greater Washington area. Our Israel Action Center educates and trains community members to become confident, informed advocates for a secure, democratic Israel and a strong U.S.-Israel relationship. Get Involved

Community Building The JCRC works on a daily basis to protect and serve the most vulnerable among us, foster greater mutual respect, and strengthen the fabric of our local community. We serve as the Jewish community’s central voice for relationship building between Jews and other faith, ethnic, and minority groups in the Greater Washington, DC region. In times of celebration and times of need we work together to build a stronger more vibrant community where all people of all backgrounds, faiths, and identities feel valued and safe.
