We'll be introducing and highlighting our Heroes Against Hate over the course of the next month - keep an eye out here for a public servant, an organization, a student, and incredible individuals...
Dr. Henry Jackson has been a strong partner to the Jewish Federation’s community engagement and combatting hate initiatives.   As a key professional at Ocean County College engaging with local high schools and leadership, as well as organizing enrichment programs at the College, Dr. Jackson has been a leader in educating about respect for difference and ways to combat hate in all its forms, including racism, bigotry, and antisemitism.
