A teacher reflected that "one of the strongest themes that flows through my curriculum is the power of the human spirit. I connect this to all historical events studied in my 8th grade class. 'Women in the Partisans' will be a perfect addition to my Holocaust unit."
To bring the Women in the Partisans and other JPEF workshops to your community, please contact outreach@jewishpartisans.org.
