Thank you for using our 2025 Hanukkah Guide

We hope this Hanukkah guide brought light, reflection, and connection into your celebration.

For 80 years, JCPA has united Jewish coalitions to advance justice, equality, and democracy. Today, we are mobilizing the community relations network and our partners to build a safer, more inclusive future — rooted in the understanding that Jewish safety is inseparable from the safety of other communities and from a strong, pluralistic democracy.

Hanukkah teaches us that even small acts of courage and solidarity can push back against darkness. By working together across lines of difference, we can build a world where everyone is safe, valued, and free.

Here are some ways to get involved and continue bringing light into our democracy:

Join our Action Networks

JCPA’s Action Networks are mobilizing Jewish Americans and our allies to show up for the policies we need to advance our safety and our democracy. By bringing together national and local Jewish organizations — including Jewish Community Relations Councils and other local Jewish communities across the country — alongside our allies and partners, we’re working to protect and advance our democracy and counter hate and bigotry at a moment when this work is dire.
