JSN is pleased to offer Community Watch Synagogue Volunteer Training Program. The introduction of security volunteers brings numerous practical and community advantages. It strengthens resilience, fosters community spirit, and enhances connectivity between the community and the synagogue. By engaging local members in safeguarding their shared spaces, this initiative builds a sense of responsibility and belonging. The program is based on a successful international model, demonstrating its effectiveness, and its launch in the Greater Toronto Area is an exciting step forward in bolstering community security and unity.
Please note: As the program is in the initial stages of being developed, only individuals who are affiliated with a synagogue can register for training. After the High Holidays, additional courses will be offered that will be open to the general community.

Community Happenings
The Women in Politics Mentorship Program is designed to support and train Jewish women, 21+, who want to engage at high levels in the political process, either by running for office (at any level of government) or by working in a high-level political staff role. Despite making progress in recent years, women still represent only approximately one-third of all legislators in Canada. The Women in Politics Program seeks to help Jewish women from across the political spectrum gain knowledge, build skills, and create a network of support that will help them advance and persevere.

Your Action, Their Armor.
Israeli families have been slaughtered, villages held hostage, cities across Israel bombed and soldiers massacred.
Thousands of IDF soldiers and reservists have since been called up to duty. Immediately, Israelis began circulating lists of names of soldiers and the missing, wounded to pray for on social media and informal messages.
To consolidate efforts of individual lists and social media posts, we have re-launched the Shmira Project. The Shmira Project is a centralized system to match the names* of IDF soldiers, and Israelis who are missing, wounded or in danger with people around the world.
The ShmiraProject.org pairs a participant with an active duty IDF soldier or reservist.
You, the participant, will commit to doing a mitzvah (good deed) ranging from prayer to Torah learning to charity to simple acts of kindness in the merit of your soldier or person in danger.
The Hebrew word "shmira" (pronounced shmeerah) means "guarding". In modern Hebrew, shmira also means guard duty. We will continue in the ancient practice of pairing physical battle with spiritual battle.
When the Shmira Project was initially launched during the 2014 Gaza war, the program reached over 70,000 people from 35 countries. Today, leveraging technological advancements, our reach is limitless.
Join the Shmira Project. Your mitzvah is their armor. It’s guard duty for the rest of us.
