In a time of rising threats against Jewish communities, preparedness is empowerment.

Join Collective Threat Response Initiative for a hands-on community self-defense and situational awareness training led by Alec Goenner, lead instructor at IKMA Krav Maga and an active-duty U.S. Coast Guard member.
