Our Story

We began in 2016 as the Israel chapter of the global group Democrats Abroad to educate American Israelis about voting and to promote key Democratic Party issues. In January 2024, we rebranded as American Democrats in Israel to more closely reflect our Israeli identity and our mission of supporting U.S. Democratic candidates who ally with Israel. We became an affiliate of the Jewish Democratic Council of America, which shares our goals. We invite you to join us and gain access to member-only events and special speakers.
