In another workshop about engag- ing young Jewish adults, Detroit's Rachel Lachover from Federation's CommunityNEXT and other young professionals from Boston and Washington, D.C., encouraged chang- ing longtime practices to engage and keep young Jews involved in their Jewish communities, such as good programs working with Hillels on col- lege campuses and providing mean- ingful, purposeful projects of interest to young Jews using new approaches. One older Jewish leader, who described herself as a member of "Generation A," was befuddled by studies that younger Jews do not relate to Israel and may not understand the importance of financially supporting Jewish institutions. Some of the young Jewish adults gathered around her for a lively dis- cussion. They shared her concerns, but remain hopeful that younger Jews, in spite of feeling complacent and safe, will accept their obligations to give to the Jewish community and "choose Judaism." Outgoing Chair Dr. Conrad Giles summarized the difficulty in find- ing solutions to the challenges facing American Jews. He discussed the fact that community relations successes are often reflected by the lack of head- lines. Giles encouraged Federations and other funding entities to support the work of community relations agencies. E APPOINTMENTS PREFERRED, WALK-INS WELCOME Sunday, May 20,2012- 10am to 4pm Cong.

Attendees endorsed using federal law to counter anti-Semitism on American college campuses. The resolution calls on campus leaders to do more to make students safe from anti-Semitism. "In such circumstances, it is important for the Jewish community to serve as a resource and to offer campus groups assistance, as need- ed, to help them develop and imple- ment strategies to protect Jewish students on campus and allow them to openly express their support for Israel," the resolution stated. Particularly, the resolution high- lights provisions under Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which pro- hibits discrimination based on race, color or national origin in federally funded programs. Also adopted were resolutions that support collective bargaining for public employees, oppose gender segregation in secular public spaces in Israel, promote equal education opportunity, and call for studies, dis- closure, safeguards and oversight in the hydrofracking industry. ❑ In addition, the JCPA elected Atlanta Jewish community activist Larry Gold as its new chair to succeed Dr. Conrad Giles.
