BECAUSE OUR MISSION IS TO PROVIDE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE AUTHENTIC MEMORY OF THE HOLOCAUST, OUR STUDENT AWARENESS DAYS ARE A VEHICLE TOWARD THIS END. THE STUDENT AWARENESS DAYS ARE PREJUDICE REDUCTION SYMPOSIA WHEREBY 250-750 HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS AT EACH PROGRAM LEARN THE DANGERS OF BULLYING, RACISM, HATRED, AND BIGOTRY THROUGH VIDEOS, LECTURES, AND ROUND TABLE DISCUSSIONS WITH SURVIVORS OF THE HOLOCAUST. THIS UNIQUE PROGRAM EDUCATES THE FUTURE ABOUT THE DANGERS OF HATRED, TERROR, AND THE THREATS AGAINST OUR DEMOCRATIC VALUES AND FREEDOMS. BY RELATING TO THE TRAGIC, (SEE SCHED.

HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS FROM LOCAL PUBLIC, PRIVATE, AND PAROCHIAL SCHOOLS IN MIAMI DADE, BROWARD, PALM BEACH, AND MONROE COUNTIES ARE INVITED TO ATTEND. BECAUSE OF ALL THE BULLYING THAT IS TAKING PLACE IN THE SCHOOLS TODAY AND BECAUSE CHARACTER EDUCATION AND LEARNING TO RESPECT ONE ANOTHER IS SUCH AN IMPORTANT PART OF WHAT OUR SCHOOLS TEACH, THEY WORK CLOSELY WITH US TO ENSURE THAT AS MANY OF THEIR STUDENTS AS POSSIBLE ATTEND THE STUDENT AWARENESS DAYS. THE CENTER ENCOURAGES STUDENTS FROM ALL SCHOOLS AND BACKGROUNDS TO PARTICIPATE.Expenses $758,054
