FAQs
For people seeking help
What kinds of matters does JCLJ take on?
We focus on legal issues connected to fighting or seeking redress for antisemitism. We conduct an initial assessment of your enquiry with this in mind, so please provide all information about how your concern relates to antisemitism when you first make contact.
Your first point of contact with JCLJ will be with JCLJ Legal Services Ltd – the community legal service.
Do I need to be Jewish to get help?
No. We also support non-Jewish people who are affected because of their association with Jewish people.

Is everything confidential?

I don’t know if my situation is 'serious enough' — should I still contact you?
Yes. Even if we are not the right organisation to help you, we will seek to guide or refer you appropriately.
For donors and partners
Why is JCLJ needed when other Jewish organisations already exist?
Our existing advocacy bodies cannot provide legal advice or support all kinds of public interest litigation. JCLJ fills that gap.
Is JCLJ a political or an advocacy body?
We are a legal organisation that is independent of other communal advocacy, security and welfare bodies, with a singular focus on the law and antisemitism.
Is my donation tax-deductible?
Yes. Donations are made to Jewish Centre for Law and Justice Limited, a registered charity of the ACNC that holds Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) Status.
