Holocaust Program Coordinator

Anne received her Masters of Social Work from U of T in 1985.  She has worked at Baycrest since 1998 in many different in and out patient programmes. Since 2006 Anne has been able to devote much of her time running a program for Holocaust Survivors as well as providing support to the Survivors and their families. 

Anne visits Survivors who live at Baycrest in the Apotex, Terraces and in the hospital. She provides support to Survivors and their families via regular phone calls and virtual counseling as well as information on appropriate community resources as their needs and situations change. This support has become particularly important during Covid as many survivors are more isolated and for some this brings up memories of their wartime experiences and trauma.

Anne also organizes the Cafe Europa Program, which provides a bi-monthly social gatherings for Holocaust Survivors at Baycrest, and child survivors in the community.
