Outreach Manager Jobs in Hawaii (NOW HIRING)

About Us:

Simon Wiesenthal Center (SWC) is a global Jewish human rights organization that confronts antisemitism and hate, defends the safety of Israel and Jews worldwide, and teaches the lessons of the Holocaust through awareness, advocacy, justice, education, and its Museums of Tolerance. With a constituency of over 400,000 member families since its founding in 1977, the SWC has an international footprint through its Museums of Tolerance, Moriah Films, and the Digital Terrorism + Hate Project. 

Headquartered in Los Angeles, it maintains operations in New York, Chicago, Miami, Toronto, Paris, Berlin, Jerusalem, and Buenos Aires. It is an accredited Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) at the United Nations, UNESCO, the Organization of American States, the Latin American Parliament, and the Council of Europe and maintains relationships with the highest levels of governments throughout the world. 

In 1993, the Center opened the Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles to worldwide acclaim. The Museum has served as the Center’s flagship educational arm, challenging visitors to confront bigotry and racism, and to understand the Holocaust in both historical and contemporary contexts. In addition, the Center developed Moriah Media to produce theatrical documentaries to educate global audiences. Moriah has produced 17 documentaries to date, two of which have received the Academy Award for best feature documentary, The Long Way Home and Genocide.

About the Mobile Museum of Tolerance:

The Mobile Museum of Tolerance is a traveling educational experience that brings immersive programs on antisemitism, civil rights, media literacy, and civic responsibility directly to schools and communities. 

Through interactive technology, storytelling, and inquiry-based learning, MMOT programs help students explore questions of identity, bias, and democratic responsibility in the modern information environment. 

The Hawaii Mobile Museum of Tolerance (HMMOT) expands this mission across the Hawaiian Islands, delivering programs in Holocaust education, media literacy, civic engagement, anti-bias education, and human rights education. 

The work will be done with deep awareness of and respect for the cultures of Native Hawaiians and the many ethnic groups that are well-established in Hawaii, as well as those that are recent arrivals. Through collaboration with local educators, cultural practitioners, schools, and community organizations, HMMOT seeks to deliver programming that is responsive to Hawaii's unique cultural, historical, and educational landscape. HMMOT believes that Hawaii’s multiethnic mix, in which no one race predominates, offers a unique and powerful platform for anti-hatred and anti-discrimination work.
