built 655 days ago
The Holocaust Education and Resource Center (HERC), established in 1994, is dedicated to the preservation of memory. The facts and lessons of pre-Holocaust life and of the Holocaust years are made known, remembered and taught in the hope of helping new generations create a better future and of stemming historical revisionism.
