We’re happy to tailor any of the programs below — or build something new — to fit your needs. Reach out to get started.

For Alums: This program equips alums with a practical framework for communicating campus concerns in a persuasive, professional, and actionable way. Participants will learn how to identify the right audience, anchor their message in shared values, and make a clear, specific ask. Through real-world examples and hands-on practice, participants will leave with tools they can immediately apply to engage university leaders more effectively.

For Parents: This program explores practical strategies for supporting high school students through the college application process. Participants will also learn how they can collaborate with alumni, administrators, and campus leaders to strengthen student voices and advocate for academic freedom and mutual understanding.

For Alums, Parents, and Community Members: This interactive, scenario-based program helps participants understand the distinction between political debate and discrimination on campus. Through realistic scenarios and guided discussion, participants learn how to identify when criticism crosses into antisemitism, how to respond constructively, and how to support Jewish and pro-Israel students who may face backlash, isolation, or retaliation. Participants will leave with practical tools to promote fairness and open dialogue for all students.

For Alums and Community Members: This program provides an overview of the current campus climate for Jewish and pro-Israel students, highlighting key trends, challenges, and developments affecting colleges and universities today. Participants will gain insight into the evolving landscape of campus antisemitism and learn how alums can play a meaningful role in supporting students, engaging university leadership, and advancing positive change. The session also introduces opportunities to partner with ACF to strengthen advocacy efforts at campuses that matter most to them.
