In honor of Yom Hashoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day

This program is hosted by Tsahal BBYO and the JCC of Central NJ for teens in 8th - 12th grades and their families

The current generation of youth will be the last people to directly hear from Holocaust survivors. This generation will be responsible for carrying on Holocaust stories and education so we never forget. 

Join our panel of Holocaust survivors and descendants who will tell us their stories and answer our questions. An experienced educator will help us contextualize these stories and tie them back to modern antisemitism and how the current generation of youth can make an impact.
