Engaging communities with transformative education.
Ourstory Connections is committed to antisemitism education and Holocaust remembrance, equipping individuals and communities to recognize antisemitism, honor the dignity of the Jewish people, and respond with moral courage. We foster cross-cultural understanding through the testimonies of survivors, rooted in the belief that every person carries inherent worth, and that their stories demand a response.
Our flagship course, Living the Story, is a free nine-session class drawing on scholarship, primary sources, and survivor testimony. Participants learn to recognize antisemitism in its historical and contemporary forms and take concrete action as allies. We are currently expanding this work into resources for youth and children, so that understanding and allyship can begin at every age.
What We Do
Curriculum & Resources
Workshops & Presentations
We offer talks and programs for schools, universities, synagogues, churches, libraries, and community groups. Holocaust presentations for general audiences draw on original research using testimonies, diaries, photographs, and artifacts to bring individual stories to life. Other topics include Jewish holidays and traditions, antisemitism in digital spaces, and practical ways to respond to antisemitism today. Programs can be tailored to your group and offered in person or on Zoom.
We rely on your financial support to bring transformative education and curriculum to schools and communities. Learn more about what your gift can accomplish and about our work in the community and online.
