Thank you for your interest in our Holocaust Education Programs. Our mission is to teach the lessons of the Holocaust to inspire action against bigotry, hatred and violence. For more than 20 years, the Museum has partnered with educators in Southwest Florida. We offer programs in a five-county area. Over 250,000 students and teachers have been impacted by our programming.
