The HHREC MemoryKeeper Family History Group is a resource we offer to help develop and present a family’s Holocaust story. This program offers a unique opportunity to make meaningful connections with other descendants of Holocaust survivors.


Training sessions are scheduled weekly for 8 weeks at our library at 4 West Red Oak Lane in White Plains. The MemoryKeeper Family History Group includes access to resources for family research from pre-war through post-war and life in the U.S., writing vignettes for each of these periods; vetting for historical accuracy by the HHREC Education Department; and training to help prepare for presentations.


The program cost is $230 and includes a one-year membership to the Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center. For more information, please contact Millie Jasper at mjasper@hhrecny.org and visit our Events page for more information.
