Arieh Hecht: Patient Advocate; Nokhem Lerner: Zumer-Program Teacher

This week, Arieh Hecht, a patient advocate in
Los Angeles, talks about his life as a child of Holocaust
survivors originally from Transylvania (Hungary during WWII) and
his work as a patient advocate. We spoke with Arieh in person in
Los Angeles on July 4, 2024. We begin with a report from the
Yivo-Bard Zumer-Program by Nokhem Lerner, who's
been a Yiddish teacher there the past two years. We reached
Nokhem by phone in the New York area on July 29, 2024.
