Self Help Home Way
Linda Zabors
Self Help was founded as a mutual aid society in 1938 to support immigrants fleeing Nazi Germany. It became a center and then a home for Holocaust survivors to rebuild their lives. It was the subject of the documentary film Refuge: Stories of the Selfhelp Home. It became a senior living center in 1951.
