Resistance & Resilience

Resistance & Resilience: The Holocaust & Beyond is the inaugural event of The Consortium of Holocaust Educators of Greater Philadelphia. We hope you will join be able to join us for this special afternoon being held on Sunday, November 6, 2011 from 2:30-6:30pm at Gratz College, 7605 Old York Road, Melrose Park, PA. We are a group of 16 area organizations that provide many of the Holocaust related programs you have attended and participated in over the years. Designed for educators involved in teaching about the Holocaust, the sessions are open to the general public as well.

The program features Holocaust Survivor Judy Meisel and the award-winning documentary about her life, Tak For Alt ("Thanks for Everything" in Danish).

After the talk and film, there will be a choice of several breakout sessions. There will also be a Holocaust Education Resource Fair and a Holocaust Book Fair with senior Holocaust educators available to make specific recommendations for teachers seeking classroom materials.

The admission fee is $10.  For educators applying for up to four ACT 48 activity hours the fee is $18.
