No Place for Hate
The Anti-Defamation League, No Place for Hate at DKJA received their 5th year banner for being a “No Place For Hate” school. The vision for this program was started five years ago by current senior, Joseph Zeuner.
The ADL’s No Place for Hate® initiative provides schools and communities with an organizing framework for combating bias, bullying and hatred, leading to long-term solutions for creating and maintaining a positive climate. In 1913, ADL was founded on "Jewish values that inform our work and the change we seek in the world". It has always meant stopping anti-Semitism and defending the Jewish people. Today, it also means fighting threats to our very democracy, including cyber-hate, bullying, bias in schools and in the criminal justice system, terrorism, hate crimes, coercion of religious minorities, and contempt for anyone who is different.
We look forward to continuing this successful program at DKJA for years to come.
