Especially at this difficult time for Israel the Board of Directors of the Jewish Council for Public Affairs reaffirms its unflinching support for the Jewish State. At its June 11th Meeting, an overwhelming majority of the members indicated they would be joining the JCPA’s leadership mission in October or otherwise be visiting Israel in the coming weeks and months. The JCPA encourages all American Jews to visit Israel in the very near future as an expression of their solidarity with the people and the land of Israel. We will work actively toward achieving this goal among our more than 120 local and 13 national agencies.
