Security at Federation Events

The Gloria and Jesse Weissberg Community Security Initiative (CSI) is coordinating all security with local, county, and state law enforcement. At every Federation event, all available resources are utilized to ensure your safety. Important items to note:

  • Bag policy: Backpacks, luggage, and large purses are not permitted at events. We encourage you not to bring a bag if possible or to bring a very small one. All bags may be subject to search.
  • Additional security measures: Additional security procedures (e.g., metal detectors) may be implemented as needed.
  • Social media protocol: Please do not share the location of a Federation event before or during the event. We also ask that you refrain from posting about the event until it has ended and the site is clear of attendees.
  • Photo ID required: All attendees must present a valid government-issued photo ID upon arrival for entry. Minors accompanied by an adult are exempt.

Building an inclusive community is a priority. Please email [email protected] to let us know if you require an accommodation to meaningfully participate in an event. One of our Federation professionals will reach out to you to learn more.
