to strip of 2' to 3' of the outer cable jacket so I can reach both the
switch and the ground block without splicing in a piece of wire to run to
the ground block?

You have a ground block located adjacent to the switches?
Interesting. In answer to your question, try a pair of
cuticle scissors, the slim points can be pushed under the
jacket and between the twisted wires far enough to allow the
shears to cut the jacket away. Obviously, this doesn't work
on single conductor cable.
