Mission Statement

Founded in 1906 AJC is America’s premier human relations agency. Our efforts include extensive diplomatic outreach, pioneering educational programs and ongoing collaboration with scores of leading religious and ethnic organizations. Through our 32 chapters nationwide, 8 overseas offices and 24 global partnerships, AJC plays an active role in combating bigotry in all its forms and defending the dignity of every individual. Our work in the public arena has won the acclaim of civic, political and religious leaders worldwide. ACCESS: AJC’s New Generation Program brings together a select group of emerging leaders between the ages of 25 and 45 and provides them with the opportunity to learn about the issues that are at the forefront of AJC’s agenda.
