The WSJP Docents are VOLUNTEER ambassadors for the mission of Women of the Shoah Jewish Placemaking and the monument “She Wouldn’t Take off Her Boots.”Through extensive training throughout the year, they are equipped to lead tours on-site and in the community about the stories the monument represents, and the lessons that they convey.
