AJC builds bridges across religious, ethnic and racial lines. AJC believes that fostering democratic pluralism is the best insurance for Jewish security in a diverse society. The Washington Chapter has been at the forefront in creating new and important coalitions with the Asian American, Latino, Indian American, and African American communities, as well as reaching out to key non-Jewish religious leaders in the community.

The Washington Chapter held the First Annual Interethnic Thanksgiving breakfast at the Cosmos Club with representatives of the various ethnic and religious sponsoring organizations of America's Table: A Thanksgiving Reader.
