In response to the release of the Anti-Defamation League’s “Audit of Antisemitic Incidents 2025,” Hadassah National President Carol Ann Schwartz released the following statement:
“The ADL’s just-released Audit of Antisemitic Incidents reflects a deeply troubling reality for American Jews, with physical assaults reaching a record high,” said Carol Ann Schwartz, Hadassah National President. “This hits especially close to home for Hadassah as a member of the Hadassah family died from injuries sustained in the antisemitic terror attack in Boulder last June. Hadassah will always speak out against antisemitism and we urge elected officials to take steps to protect Jewish communities across the country.”
