Jewish Community Reports Increased Vulnerability After Synagogue Attack

Why it matters locally: The Oregon Jewish Museum and Center for Holocaust Education, along with other Jewish organizations in Oregon, may be seeing increased outreach for security and support services in light of these national concerns.

Rabbi Daniel Walker, a leader within the Jewish community, stated that community members report increasing feelings of vulnerability. He indicated the current climate surpasses the levels of concern experienced directly after a synagogue attack. Walker noted that the community now finds itself in a more difficult position than in the immediate aftermath of that incident.
