The National Conference for Community and Justice was founded in 1927 as the National Conference of Christians and Jews, in response to antisemitism. Since then, we have served as a diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) anchor institute and community convener to end bigotry, address injustices and indignities in our country. NCCJ is a human relations organization that promotes inclusion and acceptance by providing education and advocacy while building communities that are respectful and just for all. Diversity, Equity and inclusion (DEI) work is responsive to environmental considerations. To this end, NCCJ provides free education and coaching programs for adults and youth as well as fee for service consulting to businesses, organizations and schools/universities around topics including: Ability, Age, Class, Gender, Race, Religion, Sex, Sexual Orientation and Size. We encounter challenges, we are encouraged by the possibilities. NCCJ helps humans, human better. Some examples include our flagship youth leadership and human relations programs ANYTOWN and Bridges I and II that cater to middle and high school students. These programs equip youth with confidence, knowledge, community, and skills to create positive social change in their lives and communities.
