| Annotation | Many Holocaust survivors have now reached old age, a time when many older people often review their lives and find new meaning in life events. This study presents the results of qualitative interviews with 13 Holocaust survivors who describe their stories of purpose and hope. It recounts how each survivor met untoward circumstances during this time of crisis. Suggestions are made as to how social workers can use this knowledge to promote client resilience and coping strategies. (RH). |
