Together Against Hate

in partnership with First Coast YMCA and the Jewish Family Alliance (JCA)

Let’s listen, learn and grow together – even when the conversations are challenging.

Together Against Hate: Promoting Unity in Our Community is a speaker series addressing topics impacting our area including prejudices in faith, race, antisemitism, ethnicity, LGBTQ+, gender, and diverse abilities. Starting in September 2023, influential speakers from 904Ward, JASMYN, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the Arc Jacksonville, the LJD Jewish Family & Community Services, OneJax, and the Interfaith Center, empowered our neighbors with the knowledge needed to have a voice in taking a stance against bias. As a visual representation of our partnership and the efforts made to unify our community, our series culminated with the first-ever Racing Against Hate 5K Run/Walk at the Winston Family YMCA on Sunday, February 25, 2024.

The 2025 Racing Against Hate 5K Run/Walk is February 23, 2025 at 1:00pm. Register here: https://runsignup.com/Race/FL/Jacksonville/RaceAgainstHate
