What We Do
On Behalf of The Community
When our local Jewish community collectively needs to take action, address missing infrastructure, respond to crisis, or speak in a united voice beyond our Jewish community, it is our Federation that leads the way, convening community partners to address challenges too large to be tackled by any one organization.
Planning and Allocations
The Federation constantly seeks out and propagates best practices while collecting actionable community and program data to help us anticipate and address future challenges by making strategic investments today. As the trusted aggregator of community data, the insights we glean are shared with Jewish community partners and stakeholders to maximize our collective resources and ensure a stronger and more vibrant community today and tomorrow.
Making Jewish Dallas Safer and More Secure
The Federation’s Community Security department convenes, prepares, and equips Jewish individuals and organizations with the tools, training, resources, and education that keep us safer in and beyond Jewish spaces. We also closely monitor community reports and metrics to facilitate advocacy and resource management.
Engaging the Broader Community
Our Federation is the leading local Jewish voice in Dallas. It is our goal to represent Jewish values and interests and to foster strong relationships with Jewish and non-Jewish community leaders alike . Our department of Community Relations leverages national and local data (including user-reported cases of antisemitism) and engages in outreach and legislative relations through a variety of interfaith, social action, and Israel-centered initiatives to educate and advocate toward consensus Jewish views.
Leading Through Crisis
When terror, war, or natural disaster strikes any part of our global Jewish family our Federation responds quickly and effectively. Together, we advocate, fundraise, and deploy emergency resources to trusted on-the-ground partners, helping Jewish communities in Israel, and throughout the world. When a crisis happens in our backyard, the Federation leads the local Jewish community’s response, convening and coordinating to ensure the safety and well-being of Jewish Dallas, especially our most vulnerable populations.
