About Us
Our Mission
The Organization for Student Safety (OSS) is a national self-defense organization for college and university students in the United States. We are dedicated to empowering jewish students and their allies with the knowledge and skills to protect themselves and others in any situation. Through our training and resources, we aim to build a community of confident and capable student leaders who prioritize safety and security for all.
Our Vision
At The OSS we envision a future where every student feels safe to be themselves. We also want them to be prepared and equipped to handle potential threats and dangers. Our vision is to create a culture of respect and tolerance, along with proactive risk management and personal safety awareness across college and university campuses nationwide.
Our Values
Our organization is built on liberal Jewish values of integrity, resilience, and inclusivity. We believe in fostering an environment where every student feels empowered and supported, regardless of background or experience. By upholding these values, we strive to cultivate a strong sense of unity and purpose within the Jewish student community.
