Jewish Partisan Educational Foundation

Most people have never heard of the 20,000-30,000 Jews who fought back against the Nazis as Jewish partisans. This information has the power to transform people's perception of the Jewish experience during the Holocaust.

JPEF develops and distributes effective educational materials about the Jewish partisans and their life lessons, bringing the celebration of heroic resistance against tyranny into educational and cultural organizations.

  JPEF has produced a comprehensive and thought-provoking new curriculum called RESIST, designed to transmit the enduring understandings arising from the stories of the Jewish partisans. With layers of interactivity unprecedented in most any curriculum, RESIST is designed for 6th-12th grade students in formal and informal settings and is now being implemented in Jewish and secular schools worldwide.
