Volunteer at the Holocaust Memorial Miami Beach

The Holocaust Memorial Miami Beach, a Committee of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation, is now accepting applications for its Fall 2023 Docent Training Program. Docents play an important role in keeping the memory of the Holocaust alive today. Volunteers will be responsible for leading tours of the Holocaust Memorial and interacting with students in grades 5-12, adult learners and members of the general public. Five two-hour docent training sessions will take place throughout October and November, and participants are required to attend all sessions in order to complete the training. If you are interested in becoming a docent, please contact Director of Education Dr. Nicole Freeman at [email protected] for more information.
