Government Affairs

The JCRC’s Government Affairs Committee serves as the bridge between the Jewish community and public policy leaders, particularly elected officials at the local, state, and federal levels. For over 30 years, the JCRC has been the consistent and respected voice in the halls of government that communicates the concerns of the Jewish community with integrity.

Through our deliberative process, we build consensus on public policy issues and then develop an advocacy strategy on legislation before the Indiana General Assembly. JCRC is proud to serve as the liaison between our public policy leaders and members of Jewish communities throughout the State of Indiana as we create relationships with elected officials on both sides of the aisle.

Our Guiding Principles for Advocacy guide our advocacy efforts. These positions result from extensive deliberation among divergent views in our community. We work tirelessly behind the scenes and on the front lines to ensure that the organized Jewish community’s interests are addressed.
