About us

The Mayor’s Office to Combat Antisemitism (MOCA) is tasked with identifying and developing efforts to combat antisemitism and anti-Jewish hate crimes, support victims of antisemitism, and celebrate Jewish culture and traditions using the resources of the City of New York.

MOCA liaises with an Interagency Task Force to Combat Antisemitism, composed of representatives of the Office for the Prevention of Hate Crimes, New York City Police Department, New York City Commission on Human Rights, and other City agencies to fulfill its mission and deliver for the City’s more than one million Jewish New Yorkers.

Additionally, MOCA coordinates non-law enforcement responses to incidents of antisemitism on behalf of the Office of the Mayor, and serves as a liaison with the Jewish community to address issues related to services for victims of hate crimes and bias incidents motivated by antisemitism, and security for vulnerable populations and institutions.

The Mayor’s Office to Combat Antisemitism is led by Phylisa Wisdom.
