Started by students. Built on real data.

In 2023, Adrian Erlikhman, Ryan Erlikhman, and Yonatan Zarur were watching antisemitism rise in their LA neighborhoods and on their campus. They couldn't find a single place that mapped it clearly — where it happened, how often, what patterns were forming. So they built one.

SafeJew received a $1,000 Teen Innovation Grant from JFEDLA and was distributed across their Greater LA network through the Community Security Initiative. This version is a full rebuild — faster, more rigorous, and free to use.
