“As Jewish people, we are all responsible for caring for one
another,” said Michael Hoffman, President and CEO Jewish
Federation of Palm Beach County. “Jewish Federation and our
partners have a history and expertise of ensuring we care for
vulnerable people in our community. Working together with
our vast community network, we can reach and provide for
more survivors to enable them to live with dignity.”
While some local organizations have provided services to
survivors over the years, many individuals are still left in the
shadows for a variety of personal reasons, including post-
traumatic stress. As survivors explain, any sign of weakness
or infirmity during the Holocaust could have been a death
sentence, and this fear has been deeply internalized by many
survivors throughout their lives, leaving them reluctant to reach
out for help. Given this knowledge, funds will also be used to
provide in-depth sensitivity training to caregivers, which will
ensure that each survivor’s needs are met with compassion.
