Our Mission

The Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center is a not-for-profit organization serving Westchester County and surrounding areas. Our mission is to enhance the teaching and learning of the lessons of the Holocaust to support the right of people to be treated with dignity and respect.

The Center helps schools fulfill the New York State mandate that the Holocaust and other human rights abuses be included in their curriculum. With the help of private individuals, foundations and occasional grants, the Center not only developed the curriculum, but also continues to fund the professional training of educators.

To date, the Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center has brought the lessons of the Holocaust, genocide and human rights crimes to more than 1,800 teachers during the past two decades, through its professional development courses.

Since 1994, about 100,000 high school and middle school students have been taught the Holocaust, many of whom have had the chance to experience history through the eyes of a Survivor or Liberator from our Speakers Bureau.
