WASHINGTON, DC—USDA employees are invited to view the livestream of the 30th annual Federal Interagency Holocaust Remembrance Program, “Rays of Hope,” on Tuesday, April 18, from 11:30 a.m.-1:00 p.m. EDT.

This year’s program features two Holocaust survivors, Peter Gorog and Manny Mandel, and occurs on Holocaust Remembrance Day (Yom HaShoah).

Each year, this program educates federal employees and the public about the Holocaust through the stories of survivors, who show what can happen if prejudice, hate, and intolerance against any individual or group of people goes unchallenged.

Sign language interpreting will be provided. More information is available at www.holocaustremembrance.org.
