NCJW Greater Dallas

MAZEL TOV!
At the Annual Meeting & Awards, our new president, Kim Schonwald, honored the strong foundation NCJW Dallas women have built over the past 113 years — and shared a bold vision for what comes next.

We welcome the bipartisan Jewish American Security Act introduced by Sen. Jacky Rosen and Senator James Lankford — legislation that would strengthen civil rights enforcement, protect vital security funding, and counter online extremism and hate.
