Type of Organization or Mission: Professional development for teachers in Holocaust and human rights education.
Services: TOLI offers professional development programs to educators who teach about the Holocaust, other genocides, and human rights in the United States and abroad. TOLI was established to continue the work of Olga Lengyel, Holocaust survivor and author of Five Chimneys: A Woman Survivor’s True Story of Auschwitz, who made it her life’s work to educate future generations about the Holocaust and its relevance today. TOLI seminars provide teachers with innovative teaching methods and materials and introduce them to some of the fundamental principles of contemporary Jewish life.
Publications: Reading, Writing, and Teaching the Holocaust I & II - educational DVDs, with the Holocaust Educators Network
