Who We Are

The Holocaust and War Victims Tracing Center is a national clearinghouse for persons seeking the fates of loved ones missing since the Holocaust and its aftermath. We assist U.S. residents searching for proof of internment, forced/slave labor, or evacuation from former Soviet territories on themselves or family members. This documentation may be required for reparations.

• All of our tracing services are confidential and free of charge.
• We pioneered a process with the International Tracing Service which results in expedited replies to searches.
• We use the worldwide network of more than 180 Red Cross and Red Crescent societies and the Magen David Adom in Israel.
• We also consult museums, archives, and international organizations to further facilitate tracing requests.
• Cases remain open, and if new information becomes available, it is immediately shared with the inquirer.
