2.  To raise awareness of materials and human resources  available locally to Iowa and Illinois teachers who cover the Holocaust;

3. To support Illinois teachers in fulfilling the Illinois mandate to teach the Holocaust;

4. To inspire Iowa teachers to include the Holocaust in their curricula and Iowa legislators to draft and pass legislation mandating Holocaust education in Iowa; and

5. To inform prospective social studies and language arts teachers in their college programs regarding how they might include the Holocaust in  future teaching assignments.
