Welcome
to the Holocaust Education Center of the Delaware Valley and its Goodwin Holocaust
Museum
Documents and books describe historical facts. But eye witness testimonies
are much more powerful. The real life stories of survivors and liberators make
history come alive and become personal. Face to face encounters have an emotional
impact that no child or adult will ever forget.
The Holocaust Education Center (HEC) strives to overcome prejudice, intolerance
and bigotry through programs that provide students and others the opportunity
to hear history from eye witnesses. At this most human level, people can learn
lessons of tolerance that effect changes of heart and behavior.
