The Ambassador Program is a coalition of student representatives who work together in a legislative body. These action-minded individuals are full-time students from universities across the United States and Canada who join together to combat antisemitism on campus. Each individual university is distinct in its landscape and challenges, and thus ambassadors represent the needs of their schools and the challenges that Jewish students face. Jewish on Campus works with each ambassador to provide a voice on their campus, legal advising, and aids in grassroots campus organizing. The Program launched in Fall 2021.

Your action matters. Jewish on Campus is committed to amplifying the voices of Jewish students. Through our
Ambassador Program, we work to give students
the platform and resources to make direct change
on their campuses. Campus Ambassadors will
serve as representatives on a legislative body in
weekly meetings to pass student-proposed
resolutions and fight antisemitism where it affects
them. In addition to these meetings, students will
have opportunities to hear from guest speakers,
craft op-eds, and host Jewish on Campus events
on their own campuses.
