The time is now. Since Oct 7th, we have received an overwhelming volume of requests for protection on college campuses. Given this, CSS is expanding its mandate to campus. I connected with eJewishPhilanthropy’s Haley Cohen on this critical story: ejewishphilanthropy.com/community-secu…

“This is no longer a hypothetical… I’ve had students come to me saying that they fear for their life,” said Richard Priem, CEO of a group that will provide self-defense and safety training for Jewish students beginning this fall. ji.news/4cvISdH

We are glad to be part of this important and timely panel conversation amid high levels of antisemitism at universities. We deeply value our partnership with Alpha Epsilon Pi IHQ and ADL and look forward to supporting them and helping students be #safe on #campus.

Today we remember the 1,200 people who were brutally murdered by Hamas terrorists, the thousands of innocents who were injured, and the 250 people who were kidnapped - many of whom are still held hostage - in the terrorist attack in Israel on 7 October.

We were proud to help protect The Jewish Federations of North America and Conf Of Presidents’ Stand Together Unity Event at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C. It was an honor to collaborate with the Metropolitan Police Department to ensure the safety of thousands of attendees from across the country.

On this Memorial Day for Israel’s fallen, CSS stands committed to carrying their spirit forward, protecting Jewish life and the Jewish way of life wherever we are. We Remember. We Honor. #YomHaZikaron #CSSCommunity #ProtectingOurCommunities
