As explained on her website, "Mrs. Lazan's mission is to speak to as many people as possible, students and adults, so they can hear the story from a Holocaust survivor.  Her presentation goes beyond the facts; she applies the lessons learned to society today. She asks her audience to be tolerant of others and not stereotype individuals based on religious belief, color, race or national origin. She stresses the importance of positive thinking as well as creativity and inner strength when working to overcome adversity.  She warns her listeners to be true to themselves and not blindly follow the leader."
