Shorefront Council expands Holocaust survivor services
Holocaust survivors living in Brighton Beach now have a place to go for help, thanks to the City Council, which provided funding for the Shorefront Jewish Community Council to expand its Holocaust Survivor Social Services Program.
The community council, which operates out of 128 Brighton Beach Ave., recently hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony to mark the expansion.
The program’s expansion was made possible by New York City Council’s Holocaust Survivor Initiative, an effort spearheaded by Councilmembers Rafael Espinal (D-Cypress Hills-East New York) and Mark Levine (D-Morningside Heights).
