Holiday Security Guide As the holidays approach, the Anti- Defamation League urges synagogues and communal institutions to prioritize security considerations and ensure adequate safety measures are in place. The ADL has made available its security manual Protecting Your Jewish Institution: Security Strategies for Today's Dangerous World. "We should take pride in the fact that Jewish communities across America are generally safe and secure:' said Abraham Foxman, ADL national director. "However, we have seen a spate of anti-Semitic acts of vandalism around the country in recent weeks. Since the Jewish community's visibility is heightened during the upcoming holidays, Jews must be especially vigilant." The manual includes a chapter on security tips and strategies for high- holiday services, including: assess- ing risk, establishing a perimeter, controlling access, maintaining a screening center. A new crisis man- agement chapter offers techniques for real-time decision-making dur- ing unfolding crises. ADL resources, including its secu- rity manual, are available at www.adl.org/security.
