Led by survivor Esther Finder, a panel of children of Holocaust survivors including Dr. Maria Lombardo NIAF Education Director described their emotional, social, and psychological experiences in growing up with their Nazi survivor parents. There were many young people in the audience who also addressed what it was like for them growing up with grand- parents and in some cases parents, aunts or uncles, who were Holocaust survivors. Most importantly young people wanted to learn their relative's experiences.
