The Next Chapter

In the Next Chapter, teens develop profound connections with Holocaust survivors and their descendants. Students build a special community of social responsibility and genocide awareness and may be awarded up to 20-30 hours of community service.

The Next Chapter will be offered virtually for the 2020-21 academic year. Students meet every 2-3 weeks from January through May. They hear testimony from Holocaust survivors and their descendants several times throughout the semester.

Leon, member of the Speakers Bureau, shares his testimony virtually with The Next Chapter students.

To request an application for next year’s virtual program, please complete our inquiry form and a staff person will be in touch.
