Incident Response

We document and respond to incidents of antisemitism in schools, on college campuses, and throughout our communities.

The Chicago Jewish Alliance is committed to ensuring that incidents of antisemitism across the Chicagoland area do not go unnoticed or unanswered. Every report we receive is carefully documented, reviewed, and used to guide our advocacy efforts. Whether an incident occurs in a K–12 school, on a college campus, or within the broader community, our goal is to support those affected, engage the appropriate institutions, and work toward meaningful solutions.

Our team works with school administrators, university leadership, elected officials, law enforcement, and community organizations throughout the Chicagoland area to address incidents, strengthen policies, and encourage accountability. By tracking trends over time, we identify recurring issues, prioritize resources, and advocate for meaningful change that strengthens Jewish life and safety across our region.

Every report helps us better understand the challenges facing Chicagoland's Jewish community. The data we collect identifies emerging trends, measures the impact of our advocacy, informs community leaders, and encourages institutions to take concerns seriously. By documenting and responding to each report, we are better equipped to support those affected and help build safer, stronger, and more welcoming communities.

To date, the Chicago Jewish Alliance has documented and responded to 111 reported incidents. The chart below shows the breakdown by category.
