During and immediately after the years of Nazi rule, Jews in North America joined the armed forces, participated in relief programs, promoted awareness of Nazi crimes, and lobbied government officials to pursue rescue efforts and immigration reform more aggressively. Many Jewish survivors immigrated to North America after World War II, forming new communities in their adoptive countries.
