The nine national agencies that make up the Alliance engage in critical work to build capacity and support the work of the federations and their local affiliates. In addition, these organizations help to advance the federation system’s goals on a national and international stage. The galvanizing principle for the Alliance is to build upon this work and promote deeper relationships and create synergy between the national agencies and the federations. The Alliance hopes to enhance agency visibility in local communities and federations, while at the same time encouraging greater federation presence at important events and gatherings of these national agencies.

Currently, 37 federations participate in the Alliance. These include almost all of the large U.S. federations, many of the large-intermediates, and about a dozen small and intermediate federations. If your federation is currently not an Alliance member, we hope you will encourage your community to join us. If you are interested and need more information about the Alliance, please contact Stephan Kline, UJC’s Managing Director for National Agency Relations and Public Policy at stephan.kline@ujc.org or 202.736.5864.
