Facing History and Ourselves
The Palm Beach Fellowship of Christians & Jews has been providing full scholarships to outstanding teachers in Palm Beach County to attend the Facing History and Ourselves summer workshop, “Holocaust and Human Behavior,” in Brookline, Massachusetts. The information, training, and inspiration that the teachers bring back from this week-long program to their classrooms, schools, and community are invaluable to them personally and professionally, and dovetail beautifully with the mission of the Fellowship.
